Description

A vulnerability in the command parameters of a certain AOS-CX CLI command could allow a low-privilege authenticated remote attacker to inject malicious commands resulting in unwanted behavior.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5)AI

prevent

Directly mitigates command injection by requiring validation of CLI command parameters to block malicious inputs.

prevent

Addresses the vulnerability through timely flaw remediation, including applying vendor patches for the AOS-CX CLI command injection.

prevent

Limits impact of exploitation by low-privilege attackers by enforcing least privilege on CLI command execution.
