CVE-2026-79869

Summary

AOS-10 contains authentication bypass flaws in one of its interfaces, allowing an unauthenticated adjacent attacker to skip authentication and run privileged commands on the underlying OS.

Exploitability

Exploitation requires the attacker to be on the same adjacent network segment (e.g., same LAN or wireless subnet) with no authentication required.

Blast radius

Successful exploitation grants full system compromise: arbitrary command execution as a privileged user, enabling data theft, lateral movement, and service disruption.

Detection

No reliable host or network indicator is derivable from the published description.

Prioritized remediation

Upgrade to AOS-10 version 2.590 or later, which contains the vendor-provided fix for CVE-2026-79869.
