Description

There are arbitrary file deletion vulnerabilities in the AirWave client service accessed by PAPI (Aruba's access point management protocol). Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities result in the ability to delete arbitrary files on the underlying operating system, which could lead to the ability to interrupt normal operation and impact the integrity of the access point.
