Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Aruba AirWave Management Platform versions prior to 8.2.12.0

Description: A remote authenticated arbitrary command execution issue was discovered in the AirWave web-based management interface, allowing remote authenticated users to run arbitrary commands on the underlying host. This could enable an attacker to execute arbitrary commands as a lower privileged user on the underlying operating system, leading to partial system compromise.

Recommendations: For versions prior to 8.2.12.0, update to version 8.2.12.0 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the AirWave web-based management interface to minimize the risk of exploitation.
