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 vulnerability in the web-based management interface of EdgeConnect SD-WAN Orchestrator could allow an unauthenticated remote attacker to conduct a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) attack against an administrative user of the interface. A successful exploit allows an attacker to execute arbitrary script code in a victim's browser in the context of the affected interface.

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 · high confidence

A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the web-based management interface of EdgeConnect SD-WAN Orchestrator allows unauthenticated remote attackers to inject malicious scripts that execute in the browsers of administrative users when they access the compromised interface.

MitigationApply the vendor-provided security patch for EdgeConnect SD-WAN Orchestrator and implement output encoding/sanitization for user-supplied input in the web management interface.

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. Identify EdgeConnect SD-WAN Orchestrator version
    Log into the web management interface and locate the version information, typically found in the footer of any page, under Administration > System > About, or under Help > About. Alternatively, access the system via CLI and run: show version or sudo /opt/orchestrator/bin/orchestrator --version
    Affected if The installed version falls within these ranges: 9.0.0 through 9.0.5, 9.1.0 through 9.1.7, 9.2.0 through 9.2.5, or exactly 9.3.0
  2. Verify web management interface is enabled and accessible
    Confirm the web-based management interface is currently enabled on the Orchestrator. Check network exposure by reviewing accessible management URLs or running: netstat -tlnp | grep -E '443|8080' to verify listening management ports
    Affected if The web management interface is enabled and reachable, making it potentially exposed to unauthenticated attackers who could inject malicious scripts
  3. Review administrative user sessions for suspicious activity
    In the web UI, navigate to Administration > Sessions or Audit Logs. Look for unexpected administrative logins, especially from unfamiliar IP addresses or at unusual times. Check for any recently created or modified user accounts or configuration entries that may contain injected script tags
    Affected if Unexpected sessions exist, unknown administrative accounts are present, or suspicious patterns are found in audit logs indicating potential exploitation

You are affected if the installed EdgeConnect SD-WAN Orchestrator version is 9.0.x, 9.1.x, 9.2.x, or 9.3.0 and the web management interface is enabled and accessible.

Upgrade available Upgrade to a release after 9.2.5
Interim mitigation

Apply the vendor-provided security patch for EdgeConnect SD-WAN Orchestrator and implement output encoding/sanitization for user-supplied input in the web management interface.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

Upgrade to the next patch release in your current minor version branch (9.0.6+, 9.1.8+, 9.2.6+, or 9.3.1+)

  1. Identify the currently installed EdgeConnect SD-WAN Orchestrator version from the web interface or system documentation
  2. If running version 9.0.0 through 9.0.5, upgrade to version 9.0.6 or later
  3. If running version 9.1.0 through 9.1.7, upgrade to version 9.1.8 or later
  4. If running version 9.2.0 through 9.2.5, upgrade to version 9.2.6 or later
  5. If running version 9.3.0, upgrade to version 9.3.1 or later
  6. After upgrade, verify the fix by checking release notes or Aruba support documentation for CVE-2023-37425
  7. Validate that the XSS vulnerability is remediated by reviewing the application's security patches
