Cisco Products Affected by Broadcom MediaxChange Buffer Overflow (CVE-2021-33478)

medium Tenable OT Security Plugin ID 502108

Synopsis

The remote OT asset is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

The TrustZone implementation in certain Broadcom MediaxChange firmware could allow an unauthenticated, physically proximate attacker to achieve arbitrary code execution in the TrustZone Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) of an affected device. This, for example, affects certain Cisco IP Phone and Wireless IP Phone products before 2021-07-07. Exploitation is possible only when the attacker can disassemble the device in order to control the voltage/current for chip pins.
