## Overview

A vulnerability in the web-based management interface of AOS-CX switches exposes some sessions to a lack of Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) protection. This could allow a remote unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary input against the affected interface if the attacker can convince an authenticated user of the interface to interact with a specially crafted URL.

## Affected

- `arubaos-cx < 10.10.1181`
- `arubaos-cx >= 10.13.0000, < 10.13.1190`
- `arubaos-cx >= 10.16.0000, < 10.16.1060`
- `arubaos-cx >= 10.17.0000, < 10.17.1030`
- `arubaos-cx = 10.18.0001`

## Remediation

Upgrade past the affected range:

- `arubaos-cx 10.17.1030`
