medium Nessus Plugin ID 93400

Synopsis

The remote network management server is affected by a privilege escalation vulnerability.

Description

According to its self-reported version number, the remote Cisco Prime Collaboration Provisioning server is 9.0.x or 11.0.x prior to 11.1. It is, therefore, affected by a local privilege escalation vulnerability in its command line interface due to improper sanitization of user-supplied input. A local attacker with administrator-level access can exploit this to gain root access to the host operating system.

Solution

Upgrade to Cisco Prime Collaboration Provisioning version 11.1.0 or later.
