Mitigation checklist
- Upgrade affected HPE Aruba Networking devices to an applicable fixed release: AOS-8 Mobility 8.13.1.2 or above, AOS-8 Mobility 8.12.0.7 or above, AOS-8 Mobility 8.10.0.22 or above, AOS-10 10.8.0.1 or above, AOS-10 10.7.2.3 or above, AOS-10 10.4.1.11 or above.
- Upgrade Mobility Conductors, Controllers, and Gateways to one of the following AOS-10 or AOS-8 versions (as applicable) to resolve the vulnerabilities described in the details section: - AOS-10.8.x.x: 10.8.0.1 and above; - AOS-10.7.x.x: 10.7.2.3 and above; - AOS-10.4.x.x: 10.4.1.11 and above; - AOS-8.13.x.x: 8.13.1.2 and above; - AOS-8.12.x.x: 8.12.0.7 and above; - AOS-8.10.x.x: 8.10.0.22 and above.
- To reduce the risk of exploitation, HPE Aruba Networking recommends restricting management interfaces to a dedicated Layer 2 segment or VLAN. In addition, Layer 3 firewall policies should be configured to limit access to UDP port 8444 exclusively to trusted infrastructure devices, such as managed access points (APs) and peer controllers.
