Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-09-01 21:31 – Updated: 2026-09-01 21:31

Details

An unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability exists in the underlying operating system of HPE Networking Fabric Composer and could be exploited if certain preconditions outside of the attacker's control are met. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow an unauthenticated remote attacker to execute arbitrary code as a privileged user on the underlying operating system, leading to complete compromise of the HPE Networking Fabric Composer host.

Severity

9.0 (Critical)


                  
                    CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H
