HighCVSS 8.8/10Last modified Oct 23, 2026

Description

A command injection vulnerability in the AOS-8 command line interface accessed by the PAPI protocol could lead to unauthenticated remote code execution by an adjacent attacker sending specially crafted PAPI packets destined to the PAPI UDP port 8211. Successful exploitation could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code as a privileged user on the underlying operating system.
