Descriptions

A vulnerability in the Disk Check Tool (disk-check.sh) for Cisco Wide Area Application Services (WAAS) Software could allow an authenticated, local attacker to elevate their privilege level to root. The attacker must have valid user credentials with super user privileges (level 15) to log in to the device. The vulnerability is due to insufficient validation of script files executed in the context of the Disk Check Tool. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by replacing one script file with a malicious script file while the affected tool is running. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to gain root-level privileges and take full control of the device. Cisco Bug IDs: CSCvi72673.

Una vulnerabilidad en Disk Check Tool (disk-check.sh) en el software Cisco Wide Area Application Services (WAAS) podría permitir que un atacante local autenticado eleve sus privilegios a nivel root. El atacante debe tener credenciales de usuario válidas con privilegios de superusuario (nivel 15) para poder iniciar sesión en el dispositivo. La vulnerabilidad se debe a una validación insuficiente de archivos de script que se ejecutan en el contexto de Disk Check Tool. Un atacante podría explotar esta vulnerabilidad reemplazando un archivo de script por otro malicioso mientras la herramienta afectada se está ejecutando. Su explotación con éxito podría permitir que el atacante obtenga privilegios de nivel root y obtenga el control total del dispositivo. Cisco Bug IDs: CSCvi72673.
