Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.
1) Command injection
EUVDB-ID: #VU14693
Risk: Low
CVSSv4.0: 6.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]
CVE-ID: CVE-2018-0430
CWE-ID:
CWE-77 - Command injection
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the target system.
The vulnerability exists in the web-based management interface of Cisco Integrated Management Controller (IMC) Software due to insufficient validation of command input. A remote attacker can send specially crafted commands to the web-based management interface to inject and execute arbitrary, system-level commands with root privileges.
MitigationThe vulnerability has been fixed in the versions 3.0(4d), 3.1(3a).
Vulnerable software versionsCisco Integrated Management Controller: 2.0 - 3.1
