Summary
Cisco Unified Communications Products Command Injection Vulnerability

Notes

Summary
A vulnerability in the CLI of multiple Cisco Unified Communications products could allow an authenticated, local attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the underlying operating system of an affected device as the root user. This vulnerability is due to improper validation of user-supplied command arguments. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by executing crafted commands on the CLI of an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the underlying operating system of an affected device as the root user. To exploit this vulnerability, the attacker must have valid administrative credentials. Cisco has released software updates that address this vulnerability. There are no workarounds that address this vulnerability.
Vulnerable Products
At the time of publication, this vulnerability affected the following Cisco products if they were running a vulnerable software release: Customer Collaboration Platform (CCP) Finesse Unified Communications Manager (Unified CM) Unified Communications Manager IM & Presence Service (Unified CM IM&P) Unified Communications Manager Session Management Edition (Unified CM SME) Unified Contact Center Express (Unified CCX) Unified Intelligence Center Unity Connection Virtualized Voice Browser For information about which Cisco software releases were vulnerable at the time of publication, see the Fixed Software ["#fs"] section of this advisory. See the Details section in the bug ID(s) at the top of this advisory for the most complete and current information.
Products Confirmed Not Vulnerable
Only products listed in the Vulnerable Products ["#vp"] section of this advisory are known to be affected by this vulnerability.
Workarounds
There are no workarounds that address this vulnerability.
Fixed Software
When considering software upgrades ["https://sec.cloudapps.cisco.com/security/center/resources/security_vulnerability_policy.html#fixes"], customers are advised to regularly consult the advisories for Cisco products, which are available from the Cisco Security Advisories page ["https://www.cisco.com/go/psirt"], to determine exposure and a complete upgrade solution. In all cases, customers should ensure that the devices to be upgraded contain sufficient memory and confirm that current hardware and software configurations will continue to be supported properly by the new release. If the information is not clear, customers are advised to contact the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) or their contracted maintenance providers. Fixed Releases At the time of publication, the release information in the following tables was accurate. See the Details section in the bug ID(s) at the top of this advisory for the most complete and current information. The left column lists Cisco software releases, and the right column indicates whether a release was affected by the vulnerability that is described in this advisory and which release included the fix for this vulnerability. Cisco CCP Release First Fixed Release Earlier than 15.0 Migrate to a fixed release. 15.0 15.0(1) Cisco Finesse Release First Fixed Release Earlier than 12.6 Migrate to a fixed release. 12.6 12.6(2)ES6 15.0 15.0(1) Cisco Unified CM and Unified CM SME Release First Fixed Release Earlier than 15.0 Migrate to a fixed release. 15.0 15SU2 Cisco Unified CM IM&P Release First Fixed Release Earlier than 15.0 Migrate to a fixed release. 15.0 15SU2 Cisco Unified CCX Release First Fixed Release Earlier than 15.0 Migrate to a fixed release. 15.0 15.0(1) Cisco Unified Intelligence Center Release First Fixed Release Earlier than 12.6 Migrate to a fixed release. 12.6 12.6(2)ES04 15.0 15.0(1) Cisco Unity Connection Release First Fixed Release Earlier than 15.0 Migrate to a fixed release. 15.0 15SU2 Cisco Virtualized Voice Browser Release First Fixed Release Earlier than 12.6 Migrate to a fixed release. 12.6 12.6(2)ES06 15.0 15.0(1) The Cisco Product Security Incident Response Team (PSIRT) validates only the affected and fixed release information that is documented in this advisory.
