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
SQL injection vulnerabilities exist in several underlying service components accessible through the AOS-8 and AOS-10 command-line interface and management protocol. An authenticated attacker with administrative privileges could exploit these vulnerabilities by injecting crafted input into parameters that are passed unsanitized to backend database queries. Successful exploitation could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the underlying operating system.

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

SQL injection vulnerabilities in AOS-8 and AOS-10 CLI and management protocol allow authenticated attackers with administrative privileges to inject unsanitized input into backend database queries, leading to arbitrary OS command execution on the underlying system.

MitigationRestrict administrative access to trusted personnel only, implement strict input validation and parameterized queries on all database-facing parameters, and apply vendor-provided patches when released.

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. Check ArubaOS version via CLI
    Connect to the device CLI and run: `show version` or `show system information`. This displays the installed AOS version.
    Affected if The displayed version falls within any of these ranges: >= 6.5.4.0 and < 8.10.0.22; >= 8.11.0.0 and < 8.12.0.7; >= 8.13.0.0 and < 8.13.1.2; >= 10.4.0.0 and < 10.4.1.11; >= 10.5.0.0 and < 10.7.2.3
  2. Check SD-WAN version via CLI
    If the device is an SD-WAN platform, run: `show version` or `show sd-wan version` to identify the SD-WAN software version.
    Affected if The SD-WAN version is between 8.6.0.4-2.2.0.0 and 8.6.0.4-2.2.0.7 inclusive, or between 8.7.0.0-2.3.0.0 and 8.7.0.0-2.3.0.9 inclusive
  3. Verify administrative access exposure
    Review network configuration to determine if the CLI or management interface (web UI or API) is accessible from untrusted networks. Check ACLs, firewall rules, and management VLAN settings.
    Affected if Administrative interfaces are reachable from outside trusted management networks, increasing exposure to authenticated attackers
  4. Confirm administrative user existence
    Run: `show running-config | include user` or `show aaa authentication users` to list configured administrative accounts.
    Affected if Administrative accounts exist on the system, as the vulnerability requires an authenticated attacker with admin privileges to exploit the SQL injection

Your environment is affected if the installed ArubaOS version or SD-WAN version falls within any of the affected ranges listed and the device management interface is accessible to authenticated administrators.

Upgrade available Upgrade to 8.10.0.22 / 8.12.0.7 / 8.13.1.2 or later
Fixed in 8.10.0.228.12.0.78.13.1.2
Interim mitigation

Restrict administrative access to trusted personnel only, implement strict input validation and parameterized queries on all database-facing parameters, and apply vendor-provided patches when released.

Recommended fix High confidence

ArubaOS: 8.10.0.22, 8.12.0.7, 8.13.1.2, or 10.4.1.11 (depending on current branch); SD-WAN: latest version beyond 8.6.0.4-2.2.0.7 or 8.7.0.0-2.3.0.9

  1. 1. Identify the currently running ArubaOS or SD-WAN version using 'show version' command in CLI
  2. 2. For ArubaOS 6.5.4.0-8.10.x: Upgrade to version 8.10.0.22 or later
  3. 3. For ArubaOS 8.11.x: Upgrade to version 8.12.0.7 or later
  4. 4. For ArubaOS 8.13.x: Upgrade to version 8.13.1.2 or later
  5. 5. For ArubaOS 10.4.x: Upgrade to version 10.4.1.11 or later
  6. 6. For SD-WAN 8.6.0.4-2.2.x: Upgrade to a version beyond 8.6.0.4-2.2.0.7
  7. 7. For SD-WAN 8.7.0.0-2.3.x: Upgrade to a version beyond 8.7.0.0-2.3.0.9
  8. 8. After upgrade, verify the new version is running with 'show version'
