CVE-2018-0339: A vulnerability in the web-based management interface of Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) could allow a...

Security readout for executives and security teams

Cisco ISE’s web management interface accepted some input without proper validation. A remote attacker could lure an ISE interface user into opening a specific link, causing script to run in that user’s browser session. The business concern is exposure of sensitive browser-based information or abuse of a trusted management context. Exposure is limited to organizations running Cisco Identity Services Engine with a reachable web-based management interface. The bundle does not provide exact affected versions or CPEs, so asset owners should verify deployed ISE versions against Cisco’s advisory and inventory records. Treat this as a moderate-priority management-plane issue. It requires user interaction, but successful exploitation could affect an administrator’s trusted ISE session or expose sensitive browser-held data. Prioritize verification and vendor-directed updates for internet-reachable or broadly accessible management interfaces. Mitigation focus: Review Cisco’s advisory for affected releases and fixed software guidance.; Restrict access to the ISE management interface to trusted administrative networks.; Warn ISE administrators not to open unexpected management-interface links..
