Cisco Data Center Network Manager Stored Cross-Site Scripting (cisco-sa-20200219-dcnm-xss)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 140631

Synopsis

The remote device is missing a vendor-supplied security patch

Description

According to its self-reported version, Cisco Data Center Network Manager is prior to version 11.3(1) and is, therefore, affected by a cross-site scripting vulnerability in the web-based management interface due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by persuading a user of the interface to click a crafted link. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary script code in the context of the interface or access sensitive, browser-based information. Please see the included Cisco BID and Cisco Security Advisory for more information.

Solution

Upgrade to the relevant fixed version referenced in Cisco bug ID CSCvs04009
