CVE-2019-12661 (GCVE-0-2019-12661)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2019-09-25 20:15 – Updated: 2024-11-20 17:10
VLAI?
Summary
A vulnerability in a Virtualization Manager (VMAN) related CLI command of Cisco IOS XE Software could allow an authenticated, local attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the underlying Linux operating system with a privilege level of root. The vulnerability is due to insufficient validation of arguments passed to a specific VMAN CLI command on the affected device. An attacker who has administrator access to an affected device could exploit this vulnerability by including malicious input as the argument of an affected command. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the device with root privileges, which may lead to complete system compromise.
Severity ?

La vulnerabilidad es debido a una comprobaci\u00f3n insuficiente de los argumentos pasados ??a un comando espec\u00edfico de CLI de VMAN, en el dispositivo afectado. Un atacante con acceso de administrador a un dispositivo afectado podr\u00eda explotar esta vulnerabilidad al incluir entradas maliciosas como el argumento de un comando afectado. Una explotaci\u00f3n con \u00e9xito podr\u00eda permitir al atacante ejecutar comandos arbitrarios en el dispositivo con privilegios root, lo que puede conllevar a un compromiso total del sistema.\"}],\"metrics\":{\"cvssMetricV31\":[{\"source\":\"nvd@nist.gov\",\"type\":\"Primary\",\"cvssData\":{\"version\":\"3.1\",\"vectorString\":\"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H\",\"baseScore\":6.7,\"baseSeverity\":\"MEDIUM\",\"attackVector\":\"LOCAL\",\"attackComplexity\":\"LOW\",\"privilegesRequired\":\"HIGH\",\"userInteraction\":\"NONE\",\"scope\":\"UNCHANGED\",\"confidentialityImpact\":\"HIGH\",\"integrityImpact\":\"HIGH\",\"availabilityImpact\":\"HIGH\"},\"exploitabilityScore\":0.8,\"impactScore\":5.9}],\"cvssMetricV30\":[{\"source\":\"psirt@cisco.com\",\"type\":\"Secondary\",\"cvssData\":{\"version\":\"3.0\",\"vectorString\":\"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H\",\"baseScore\":6.7,\"baseSeverity\":\"MEDIUM\",\"attackVector\":\"LOCAL\",\"attackComplexity\":\"LOW\",\"privilegesRequired\":\"HIGH\",\"userInteraction\":\"NONE\",\"scope\":\"UNCHANGED\",\"confidentialityImpact\":\"HIGH\",\"integrityImpact\":\"HIGH\",\"availabilityImpact\":\"HIGH\"},\"exploitabilityScore\":0.8,\"impactScore\":5.9}],\"cvssMetricV2\":[{\"source\":\"nvd@nist.gov\",\"type\":\"Primary\",\"cvssData\":{\"version\":\"2.0\",\"vectorString\":\"AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C\",\"baseScore\":7.2,\"accessVector\":\"LOCAL\",\"accessComplexity\":\"LOW\",\"authentication\":\"NONE\",\"confidentialityImpact\":\"COMPLETE\",\"integrityImpact\":\"COMPLETE\",\"availabilityImpact\":\"COMPLETE\"},\"baseSeverity\":\"HIGH\",\"exploitabilityScore\":3.9,\"impactScore\":10.0,\"acInsufInfo\":false,\"obtainAllPrivilege\":false,\"obtainUserPrivilege\":false,\"obtainOtherPrivilege\":false,\"userInteractionRequired\":false}]},\"weaknesses\":[{\"source\":\"psirt@cisco.com\",\"type\":\"Secondary\",\"description\":[{\"lang\":\"en\",\"value\":\"CWE-77\"}]},{\"source\":\"nvd@nist.gov\",\"type\":\"Primary\",\"description\":[{\"lang\":\"en\",\"value\":\"CWE-78\"}]}],\"configurations\":[{\"nodes\":[{\"operator\":\"OR\",\"negate\":false,\"cpeMatch\":[{\"vulnerable\":true,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:o:cisco:ios_xe:15.3\\\\(3\\\\)s:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"ABE8D4E6-7906-4680-A1DF-71FF3D43716F\"},{\"vulnerable\":true,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:o:cisco:ios_xe:15.4\\\\(2\\\\)s:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"21879090-79C9-4654-B0D4-7CC4DD92E367\"},{\"vulnerable\":true,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:o:cisco:ios_xe:15.4\\\\(3\\\\)s:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"7E142E50-BDDB-4F49-8270-CB7E2D3C815C\"},{\"vulnerable\":true,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:o:cisco:ios_xe:15.5\\\\(1\\\\)s:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"205E3D5E-35E1-4893-A5ED-A81E93C93319\"},{\"vulnerable\":true,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:o:cisco:ios_xe:15.5\\\\(2\\\\)s:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"B8C0EF57-5858-4F02-97AA-C99D3F710765\"},{\"vulnerable\":true,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:o:cisco:ios_xe:15.5\\\\(3\\\\)s:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"E64CE383-D9D5-45EF-9E68-E048D8DD9231\"},{\"vulnerable\":true,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:o:cisco:ios_xe:15.6\\\\(1\\\\)s:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"6A4A987C-C8E2-4193-9D92-9D97D4A1CE8C\"}]}]}],\"references\":[{\"url\":\"https://tools.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/cisco-sa-20190925-vman-cmd-injection\",\"source\":\"psirt@cisco.com\",\"tags\":[\"Vendor Advisory\"]},{\"url\":\"https://tools.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/cisco-sa-20190925-vman-cmd-injection\",\"source\":\"af854a3a-2127-422b-91ae-364da2661108\",\"tags\":[\"Vendor Advisory\"]}]}}",
