CVE-2026-73780: Lack of Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) Protections for Certificate-Authenticated Sessions in AOS-CX
Published Sep 1, 2026
·Updated
A vulnerability in the web-based management interface of AOS-CX switches exposes some sessions to a lack of Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) protection. This could allow a remote unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary input against the affected interface if the attacker can convince an authenticated user of the interface to interact with a specially crafted URL.

Frequently Asked Questions
1
What must an attacker do to exploit this issue?
The attacker must convince a user who is already authenticated to the web-based management interface to interact with a specially crafted URL. The attacker does not need to be authenticated to the interface themselves.
2
Which sessions are exposed?
The issue affects some certificate-authenticated sessions in the AOS-CX web-based management interface. The provided information does not identify which certificate-authentication configurations or session types are affected.
3
What could exploitation allow?
Successful exploitation could allow remote unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary input against the affected management interface. The reported impact includes high confidentiality, integrity, and availability effects.
