- ResultAttacker controls the underlying operating system
What happened
Command injection vulnerabilities exist in the affected interface of AOS-10, allowing an unauthenticated adjacent attacker to inject commands that execute with privileged operating system rights.
Are you affected?
You are affected if you run AOS-10 with the vulnerable management interface reachable from a network segment an attacker can access.
AOS-10 (specific versions not stated in the available material)
What to do
