Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2018-0146 is a CSRF issue in Cisco Data Center Analytics Framework. An attacker must trick a legitimate user into clicking a malicious link. If successful, the attacker could cause actions inside the application as that user, creating risk where DCAF is deployed and used for sensitive operations. Exposure is limited to organizations running Cisco Data Center Analytics Framework. Risk depends on whether authenticated users can access the application, the privileges those users hold, and whether the interface is reachable from attacker-influenced browsing contexts. Handle as a targeted product risk, not an internet-wide emergency based on the provided evidence. Prioritize remediation where DCAF users have high privileges or the application is reachable from less trusted networks. Mitigation focus: Check Cisco advisory cisco-sa-20180221-dcaf1 for fixed software and upgrade guidance.; Identify whether Cisco Data Center Analytics Framework is present in the environment.; Restrict access to the application interface to trusted administrative networks..
