The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute a cross-frame scripting (XFS) attack.
The weakness exists in the web-based UI of Cisco Unified Communications Manager due to insufficient protections for HTML inline frames (iframes). A remote attacker can direct the victim to a specially crafted website containing a malicious HTML inline frame and conduct XFS attack.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow attacker to conduct click-jacking or other types of client-side browser attacks.
