Security readout for executives and security teams
CVE-2017-6681 is a Cisco Ultra Services Framework issue where an unauthenticated remote attacker could abuse relative path traversal to read sensitive files. The bundle identifies Cisco Ultra Services Framework release 21.0.0 as affected. No active exploitation evidence is provided. Exposure is likely limited to organizations running Cisco Ultra Services Framework, especially known affected release 21.0.0, with reachable AutoVNF or VNF staging functionality. Internet or broad internal reachability would increase urgency. Prioritize remediation for any reachable Cisco Ultra Services Framework 21.0.0 deployment because the issue may expose sensitive system files without authentication. Urgency is lower where the product is absent or tightly isolated. Mitigation focus: Review Cisco advisory cisco-sa-20170607-usf2 and CSCvc76662 for fixed releases or workarounds.; Upgrade affected Cisco Ultra Services Framework deployments according to Cisco guidance.; Restrict USF management and staging interfaces to trusted administrative networks..
