CVE-2018-15382: Cisco HyperFlex Software Static Signing Key Vulnerability

A vulnerability in Cisco HyperFlex Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to generate valid, signed session tokens. The vulnerability is due to a static signing key that is present in all Cisco HyperFlex systems. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by accessing the static signing key from one HyperFlex system and using it to generate valid, signed session tokens for another HyperFlex system. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to access the HyperFlex Web UI of a system for which they are not authorized.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Cisco HyperFlex systems used a shared static signing key. If an attacker obtained that key from one HyperFlex system, they could create valid session tokens for another system and access its Web UI without authorization. The bundle does not show KEV listing or confirmed active exploitation. Exposure is limited to organizations running Cisco HyperFlex HX-Series, especially where the HyperFlex Web UI is reachable beyond tightly controlled management networks. Treat this as a high-priority infrastructure management-plane issue if HyperFlex is in use. Urgency is highest where management access is broadly reachable or where multiple HyperFlex environments share operational trust boundaries. Mitigation focus: Review Cisco’s advisory for affected and fixed HyperFlex software guidance.; Restrict HyperFlex Web UI access to trusted management networks.; Prioritize remediation for internet-reachable or broadly reachable management interfaces..
