Synopsis

The remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client installed on the remote Mac OS X host is a version prior to 3.1.8009.0, or is version 4.0.x prior to 4.0.2052.0, or version 4.1.x prior to 4.1.28.0. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

- A flaw exists due to not sanitizing the input of IPC commands. A local attacker, using a specially crafted IPC command, can exploit this to write to arbitrary user space memory and execute code with escalated privileges.
(CVE-2015-0664)

- A path traversal flaw exists due to the Hostscan module not properly sanitizing user input in certain IPC commands. A local, authenticated attacker, using a specially crafted IPC command, can exploit this to traverse outside restricted paths and write or overwrite arbitrary files. (CVE-2015-0665)

Solution

Upgrade to Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client version 3.1.8009.0 / 4.0.2052.0 / 4.1.28.0 or later
