Summary
CVE-2025-23052 is a high-severity Command Injection (CWE-77) vulnerability in Hpe (inferred from references). Its CVSS base score is 7.2 (High).
Operationally, ranked in the top 32% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.
Deeper analysis AI-assisted summary
Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.
CVE-2025-23052 is an authenticated command injection vulnerability, tracked under CWE-77, that affects the command-line interface of a network management service. The flaw carries a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.2 and permits an attacker who already possesses valid credentials to inject and execute operating-system commands.
An authenticated remote attacker with high privileges can supply crafted input through the CLI, resulting in arbitrary command execution as a privileged user on the underlying operating system. No user interaction is required, and the attack can be launched over the network.
The sole referenced advisory is published by HPE at the provided support URL and addresses remediation steps for the affected network management service. The associated EPSS score rose from a baseline of 0.0078 to a peak of 0.0140, indicating increased exploitation interest after disclosure.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Developer testing and evaluation can discover command-construction flaws before deployment.
Input validation directly stops construction of commands from untrusted data containing special elements.
Secure engineering principles include proper neutralization and safe command construction practices.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Security testing in development catches command-injection vulnerabilities before release.
Secure coding standards require proper escaping and parameterization of commands, directly eliminating CWE-77.
Hardening callouts derived
DISA STIG baselines are authored against specific weaknesses. Where this CVE cites a broad weakness class, the mapping is not asserted at that abstraction (owner ruling, 2026-09-25: grade only at Base and below), so no rule is shown here rather than a rule shown against the wrong grain.
- No fine-grained STIG row for CWE-77, a class-level weakness, and none of its children carries one either.
