Descriptions

A vulnerability in the web UI of Cisco IOS XE Software could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands with root privileges on the underlying operating system of an affected device. The vulnerability is due to improper input sanitization. An attacker who has valid administrative access to an affected device could exploit this vulnerability by supplying a crafted input parameter on a form in the web UI and then submitting that form. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary commands with root privileges on the device, which could lead to complete system compromise.

Una vulnerabilidad en la Interfaz de Usuario web de Cisco IOS XE Software, podría permitir a un atacante remoto autenticado ejecutar comandos arbitrarios con privilegios root en el sistema operativo subyacente de un dispositivo afectado. La vulnerabilidad es debido a un saneamiento de entrada inapropiada. Un atacante que tenga acceso administrativo válido a un dispositivo afectado podría explotar esta vulnerabilidad al suministrar un parámetro de entrada diseñado en un formulario en la Interfaz de Usuario web y luego enviar ese formulario. Una explotación con éxito podría permitir al atacante ejecutar comandos arbitrarios con privilegios root en el dispositivo, lo que podría conllevar a un compromiso total del sistema.
