CVE-2026-76677: Vulnerability in Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) EdgeConnect SD-WAN Gateways
CVE-2026-76677 is a high-severity privilege escalation vulnerability in Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) EdgeConnect SD-WAN Gateways. It affects specific versions of the product and allows a remote low-privileged authenticated user to gain administrative privileges on the web-management interface, potentially leading to full system compromise.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability exists in the API of HPE EdgeConnect SD-WAN Gateways. Exploitation requires remote authentication with low privileges but can escalate those privileges to administrative level on the web-management interface. This escalation could result in complete compromise of the affected system. The CVSS v3.1 base score is 8.8, indicating high severity, with network attack vector, low attack complexity, and no user interaction required.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation allows an attacker with low-privileged authenticated access to gain administrative privileges, leading to full control over the affected EdgeConnect SD-WAN Gateway. This can compromise confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the system.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. No official fix or patch links are provided in the available data. Until a patch is available, restrict access to the management interface to trusted users and networks, and monitor for suspicious authentication activity.
