Cisco Unified Communications Manager Path Traversal (cisco-sa-cucm-path-trav-dKCvktvO)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 154929

Synopsis

The remote device is missing a vendor-supplied security patch

Description

According to its self-reported version, the Self Care Portal of Cisco Unified Communications Manager (Unified CM) is affected by a path traversal vulnerability in its web-based management interface due to a failure to properly validate user input. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, by sending a URI that contains path traversal characters, to disclose the contents of files located outside of the server's restricted path.

Please see the included Cisco BIDs and Cisco Security Advisory for more information.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Cisco Unified Communications Manager version 14SU1 or later.
