Descriptions

A vulnerability in the web-based user interface of Cisco Internet of Things Field Network Director (IoT-FND) Software could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to gain read access to information that is stored on an affected system. The vulnerability is due to improper handling of XML External Entity (XXE) entries when parsing certain XML files. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by importing a crafted XML file with malicious entries, which could allow the attacker to read files within the affected application. Versions prior to 4.4(0.26) are affected.

Una vulnerabilidad en la interfaz web del usuario del software Internet of Things Field Network Director (IoT-FND) de Cisco podría permitir que un atacante remoto autenticado obtenga acceso de lectura a información que se encuentre almacenada en un sistema afectado. La vulnerabilidad se debe a una gestión incorrecta de las entradas XEE (XML External Entity) cuando se analizan determinados archivos XML. Un atacante podría explotar esta vulnerabilidad importando un archivo XML manipulado con entradas maliciosas, lo que podría permitir al atacante leer archivos dentro de la aplicación afectada. Todas las versiones anteriores a la 4.4(0.26) se ven afectadas.
