There are buffer overflow vulnerabilities in multiple underlying services that could lead to unauthenticated remote code execution by sending specially crafted packets destined to the PAPI (Aruba's access point management protocol) UDP port (8211). Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities result in the ability to execute arbitrary code as a privileged user on the underlying operating system.

Detection & IOCsextracted from sources · hover to see the quote

portUDP/8211
  • Monitor for unexpected or crafted UDP traffic to port 8211 (PAPI protocol), which is the attack vector for this unauthenticated RCE vulnerability.
  • Enabling cluster-security via the cluster-security command will prevent the vulnerabilities from being exploited — absence of this config on Scalance W1750D devices indicates exploitable exposure.
  • ·Affected products are Siemens SCALANCE W1750D all versions prior to V8.10.0.9; exploitation is only prevented after patching or enabling cluster-security.
  • ·The PAPI UDP port (8211) must be network-accessible for exploitation; restricting access via VLAN segmentation or firewall at layer 3 mitigates the attack surface.
