CVE-2019-1710: Cisco IOS XR 64-Bit Software for Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Routers Network Isolation Vulnerability

A vulnerability in the sysadmin virtual machine (VM) on Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Routers running Cisco IOS XR 64-bit Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to access internal applications running on the sysadmin VM. The vulnerability is due to incorrect isolation of the secondary management interface from internal sysadmin applications. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by connecting to one of the listening internal applications. A successful exploit could result in unstable conditions, including both a denial of service and remote unauthenticated access to the device. This vulnerability has been fixed in Cisco IOS XR 64-bit Software Release 6.5.3 and 7.0.1, which will edit the calvados_boostrap.cfg file and reload the device.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This Cisco router flaw can let an unauthenticated remote attacker reach internal sysadmin VM applications that should not be exposed. For affected ASR 9000 routers, the business risk is loss of availability and possible unauthorized device access at a critical network layer. Exposure is likely limited to Cisco ASR 9000 Series routers running affected Cisco IOS XR 64-bit Software, especially where the secondary management interface is reachable from untrusted networks. Treat as urgent for network infrastructure owners. Affected edge or core routers can create outage and unauthorized access risk without user interaction or credentials. Mitigation focus: Upgrade affected devices to Cisco IOS XR 64-bit Software Release 6.5.3 or 7.0.1.; Follow Cisco advisory guidance because the fix edits calvados_boostrap.cfg and reloads the device.; Confirm branch-specific fixed releases or maintenance guidance with Cisco before scheduling production changes..
