Reliable public exploit code exists, or mass exploitation attempts are probable. Patch inside days, not weeks.

Aviatrix Controllers OS Command Injection Vulnerability

Aviatrix · Controllers

CVSS 10 EPSS 99% no public exploit indexed Fix deadline passed 6 February 2025

What it is

Aviatrix Controllers contain an OS command injection vulnerability that could allow an unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code. Shell metacharacters can be sent to /v1/api in cloud_type for list_flightpath_destination_instances, or src_cloud_type for flightpath_connection_test.

Why we say that

  • EPSS puts exploitation in the next 30 days at 99%
  • CISA's federal remediation deadline (2025-02-06) has passed
  • CVSS 10 critical
  • Listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalogue

Every line above comes from a named public source. Where the evidence is thin, we say so rather than inventing confidence — see methodology.

What to do

Apply mitigations per vendor instructions or discontinue use of the product if mitigations are unavailable.

What it costs when this goes wrong
