The mv, cp, and rm file utilities exposed within the ExtremeXOS (EXOS) shell environment fail to safely canonicalize paths and follow symbolic links outside of the intended privilege boundary. An attacker with low-privilege CLI access can create a symbolic link that references a privileged filesystem location and then invoke the affected utilities to read, modify, or replace security-critical files outside of their authorized scope. Under certain conditions, this may enable escalation to root-level access and persistent modification of the device software stack. Exploitation is possible remotely by an attacker holding a low-privilege account, or locally via the serial console.

ExtremeXOS (EXOS) uses a challenge-response mechanism to authorize access to the privileged debug-mode function. The challenge value is generated using an insufficiently random source, which under certain conditions may allow an attacker to predict the expected response and activate debug-mode without authorization. Depending on device configuration and version, this may enable escalation to root-level access and persistent modification of the device software stack. Exploitation requires either a valid low-privilege account on the device (remote scenario) or physical serial console access (local scenario). This vulnerability is distinct from CVE-2017-14329, which addressed a different issue involving Python script privileges.

A race condition in the shared Extreme Platform
ONE IAM Gateway API-key authentication path could, under specific
high-concurrency traffic conditions, intermittently allow requests
authenticated with an Extreme Platform ONE /IAM-issued API key to receive
response data for another tenant. The issue was observed through ExtremeCloud
IQ/XIQ API endpoints and validated against both XIQ/XAPI and Extreme Platform ONE
/Common Services API paths. XIQ-native tokens and standard OAuth/Bearer JWT
authentication were not affected.
In ExtremeCloud IQ – Site Engine (XIQ‑SE) before 26.2.10, a vulnerability in the NAC administration interface allows an authenticated NAC administrator to retrieve masked sensitive parameters from HTTP responses. Although credentials appear redacted in the user interface, the application returns the underlying credential values in the HTTP response, enabling an authorized administrator to recover stored secrets that may exceed their intended access.
We would like to thank the Lockheed Martin Red Team for responsibly reporting this issue and working with us through coordinated disclosure.
A vulnerability in Extreme Networks’ Fabric Engine (VOSS) before 9.3 was discovered. When SD-WAN AutoSense is enabled on a port, it may automatically configure fabric connectivity without validating ISIS authentication settings. The SD-WAN AutoSense implementation may be exploited by malicious actors by allowing unauthorized access to network fabric and configuration data.
In ExtremeGuest Essentials before 25.5.0, captive-portal may permit unauthorized access via manual brute-force procedure. Under certain ExtremeGuest Essentials captive-portal SSID configurations, repeated manual login attempts may allow an unauthenticated device to be marked as authenticated and obtain network access. Client360 logs may display the client MAC as the username despite no MAC-authentication being enabled.
In ExtremeControl before 25.5.12, a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability was discovered in a login interface of the affected application. The issue stems from improper handling of user-supplied input within HTML attributes, allowing an attacker to inject script code that may execute in a user's browser under specific interaction conditions. Successful exploitation could lead to exposure of user data or unauthorized actions within the browser context.
In ExtremeCloud Universal ZTNA, a syntax error in the 'searchKeyword' condition caused queries to bypass the owner_id filter. This issue may allow users to search data across the entire table instead of being restricted to their specific owner_id.
