Synopsis

The remote device is missing a vendor-supplied security patch.

Description

According to its self-reported version, Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) is affected by a cross-site scripting vulnerability. This could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to conduct a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack against a user of the web-based management interface of an affected device. This vulnerability is due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input by the web-based management interface of an affected device. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by injecting malicious code into specific pages of the interface. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary script code in the context of the affected interface or access sensitive, browser-based information.
