Cisco has issued another batch of security warnings that include problems in its Firepower firewall (FXOS), Unified Computing System (UCS) software and Nexus switch operating system (NX-OS) .
A vulnerability in the CLI of Cisco FXOS Software and Cisco UCS Manager Software could let an authenticated, local attacker execute arbitrary commands on the underlying operating system (OS). The vulnerability is due to insufficient input validation. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the underlying OS with the privileges of the currently logged-in user for all affected platforms excluding Cisco computer engineering career 6400 Series Fabric Interconnects. On Cisco UCS 6400 Series Fabric Interconnects, the injected commands are executed with root privileges, Cisco stated.
The firewall and UCS vulnerabilities all have a severity level of “high” on the Common Vulnerability Scoring System.
