| CVE-2025-37164 | Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution in HPE OneView HPE OneView, HPE's infrastructure management platform, contains a code-injection flaw (CWE-94) that permits unauthenticated remote code execution, with a network-vector, low-complexity CVSS 3.1 score of 9.8 meaning no credentials, privileges, or user interaction are required. An attacker triggers the flaw by sending crafted code-injection input to the OneView appliance over the network, gaining code execution with high impact on the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the appliance. A compromised OneView instance can serve as a foothold into the HPE server estate it manages, and the RondoDox botnet has already been observed folding this flaw into its exploitation waves. Any organization running an HPE OneView appliance is affected, particularly where the appliance is reachable from the internet. Exploitation is confirmed in the wild: the flaw was added to CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on 2026-01-07, a public Metasploit exploit module is available, and EPSS assigns a 90.2% probability of exploitation within 30 days (100th percentile). Do: Upgrade OneView to the fixed release specified in the HPE security bulletin for CVE-2025-37164 (exact version numbers are not included in this data), and treat patching as urgent given confirmed in-the-wild exploitation and the public Metasploit module. Until patched, remove unnecessary internet exposure of the OneView appliance and review appliance and network logs for signs of compromise, including possible RondoDox botnet infection. US federal agencies must apply mitigations per vendor instructions and BOD 22-01 guidance, or discontinue use of the product if mitigations are unavailable. | 9.8 | 90% | KEV PoC |

Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) has resolved a maximum-severity security flaw in OneView Software that, if successfully exploited, could result in remote code execution.
The critical vulnerability, assigned the CVE identifier CVE-2025-37164, carries a CVSS score of 10.0. HPE OneView is an IT infrastructure management software that streamlines IT operations and controls all systems via a centralized dashboard interface.
"A potential security vulnerability has been identified in Hewlett Packard Enterprise OneView Software. This vulnerability could be exploited, allowing a remote unauthenticated user to perform remote code execution," HPE said in an advisory issued this week.
It affects all versions of the software prior to version 11.00, which addresses the flaw. The company has also made available a hotfix that can be applied to OneView versions 5.20 through 10.20.
It's worth noting that the hotfix must be reapplied after upgrading from version 6.60 or later to version 7.00.00, or after any HPE Synergy Composer reimaging operations. Separate hotfixes are available for the OneView virtual appliance and Synergy Composer2.
Although HPE makes no mention of the flaw being exploited in the wild, it's essential that users apply the patches as soon as possible for optimal protection.
Earlier this June, the company also released updates to fix eight vulnerabilities in its StoreOnce data backup and deduplication solution that could result in an authentication bypass and remote code execution. It also shipped OneView version 10.00 to remediate a number of known flaws in third-party components, such as Apache Tomcat and Apache HTTP Server.
