A vulnerability in the web-based management interface of Aruba EdgeConnect Enterprise Orchestrator could allow an remote attacker to persist a session after a password reset or similar session clearing event. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow an authenticated attacker to remain on the system with the permissions of their current session after the session should be invalidated in Aruba EdgeConnect Enterprise Orchestration Software version(s): Aruba EdgeConnect Enterprise Orchestrator (on-premises), Aruba EdgeConnect Enterprise Orchestrator-as-a-Service, Aruba EdgeConnect Enterprise Orchestrator-SP and Aruba EdgeConnect Enterprise Orchestrator Global Enterprise Tenant Orchestrators - Orchestrator 9.2.1.40179 and below, - Orchestrator 9.1.4.40436 and below, - Orchestrator 9.0.7.40110 and below, - Orchestrator 8.10.23.40015 and below, - Any older branches of Orchestrator not specifically mentioned.
Authenticating a user, or otherwise establishing a new user session, without invalidating any existing session identifier gives an attacker the opportunity to steal authenticated sessions.

| Aruba_edgeconnect_enterprise_orchestrator | Arubanetworks | * | 8.10.23.40015 (including) |
| Aruba_edgeconnect_enterprise_orchestrator | Arubanetworks | 9.0.0 (including) | 9.0.7.40110 (including) |

Such a scenario is commonly observed when:
In the generic exploit of session fixation vulnerabilities, an attacker creates a new session on a web application and records the associated session identifier. The attacker then causes the victim to associate, and possibly authenticate, against the server using that session identifier, giving the attacker access to the user’s account through the active session.
