Descriptions

A vulnerability in the web-based user interface of Cisco SocialMiner could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to have read and write access to information stored in the affected system. The vulnerability is due to improper handling of XML External Entity (XXE) entries when parsing an XML file. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by convincing the administrator of an affected system to import a crafted XML file with malicious entries, which could allow the attacker to read and write files and execute remote code within the application. Cisco Bug IDs: CSCvf47946.

Una vulnerabilidad en la interfaz de usuario web de Cisco SocialMiner podría permitir a un atacante remoto no autenticado tener acceso de lectura y escritura a la información almacenada en el sistema afectado. La vulnerabilidad se debe a una gestión incorrecta de las entradas XXE (XML External Entity) cuando se analizan sintácticamente en un archivo XML. Un atacante podría explotar esta vulnerabilidad convenciendo al administrador de un sistema afectado para que importe un archivo XML manipulado con entradas maliciosas, lo que podría permitir al atacante leer y modificar archivos y ejecutar código remotamente en la aplicación. Cisco Bug IDs: CSCvf47946.
