CVE-2026-73763

Unauthenticated adjacent-network command execution

Published Sep 1, 2026 · Updated Sep 3, 2026

Code injection in Hewlett Packard Enterprise AOS-CX allows attackers on an adjacent network to execute arbitrary commands. HPE identifies only an unspecified management component and has not disclosed the input, interface, or incorrect operation that permits command execution. Exploitation requires adjacent-network access and succeeds only under unspecified high-complexity conditions, with commands running in the affected utility's context.
