Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
A remote server-side request forgery (ssrf) vulnerability was discovered in Aruba Airwave Software version(s): Prior to 1.3.2.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

A remote server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in Aruba AirWave Software allows an attacker to induce the server to make arbitrary HTTP requests to internal or external resources by manipulating input parameters, potentially enabling access to internal services, port scanning, or data exfiltration.

MitigationUpgrade Aruba AirWave Software to version 1.3.2 or later. As a compensating control, implement network segmentation and restrict outbound access from the AirWave server to prevent internal resource access.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Verify AirWave Glass is installed
    Check for the presence of Aruba AirWave Glass application in your environment. This may be visible in installed software lists, running services, or the application's web interface accessible on the network.
    Affected if AirWave Glass is present in the environment
  2. Identify AirWave Glass version
    Locate the installed version of AirWave Glass. This is typically accessible through the application's web UI (often in an About or Version section), administrative console, or via command-line tools if you have direct server access.
    Affected if Unable to determine the installed version
  3. Compare version against vulnerable range
    Compare the identified version number to the affected range: any version prior to 1.3.2 is vulnerable. Versions 1.3.2 and later contain the fix.
    Affected if Installed version is lower than 1.3.2

The environment is affected if Aruba AirWave Glass is installed and the version is below 1.3.2, as this SSRF vulnerability exists in the software itself and does not depend on specific configuration settings.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.

From vendor data
Upgrade available Upgrade to 1.3.2 or later
Fixed in 1.3.2
Interim mitigation

Upgrade Aruba AirWave Software to version 1.3.2 or later. As a compensating control, implement network segmentation and restrict outbound access from the AirWave server to prevent internal resource access.
