  - Serialized-object interfaces in certain Cisco Collaboration and Social Media; Endpoint Clients and Client
    Software; Network Application, Service, and Acceleration; Network and Content Security Devices; Network
    Management and Provisioning; Routing and Switching - Enterprise and Service Provider; Unified Computing;
    Voice and Unified Communications Devices; Video, Streaming, TelePresence, and Transcoding Devices;
    Wireless; and Cisco Hosted Services products allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a
    crafted serialized Java object, related to the Apache Commons Collections (ACC) library. (CVE-2015-6420)

The version of Cisco Security Manager running on the remote web server is affected by a remote code execution vulnerability due to unsafe deserialize calls of unauthenticated Java objects to the Apache Commons Collections (ACC) library. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, by sending a crafted RMI request, to execute arbitrary code on the target host

The Cisco Prime Lan Management Solution (LMS) running on the remote web server is affected by a remote code execution vulnerability due to unsafe deserialize calls of unauthenticated Java objects to the Apache Commons Collections (ACC) library. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, by sending a crafted RMI request, to execute arbitrary code on the target host.

According to its self-reported version, the Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) running on the remote device is affected by a remote code execution vulnerability due to unsafe deserialize calls of unauthenticated Java objects to the Apache Commons Collections (ACC) library. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via crafted Java objects, to execute arbitrary code on the target host.
