CVE-2019-1719: Cisco Identity Services Engine Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability

A vulnerability in the web-based guest portal of Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to conduct a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack against a user of the web-based management interface. The vulnerability is due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input that is processed by the web-based interface. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by persuading a user of the interface to click a crafted link. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary script code in the context of the interface or access sensitive browser-based information. Cisco ISE software version 2.1 is affected.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Cisco ISE 2.1 has a cross-site scripting flaw in a web-based portal. An attacker would need to convince a user to open a crafted link. If successful, script could run in that user's browser session and potentially expose browser-accessible information. Exposure is limited to organizations running Cisco Identity Services Engine Software version 2.1. Risk is higher where ISE portals are reachable by privileged users who may follow links while authenticated. The source bundle does not identify additional affected versions. Treat as a moderate-priority remediation item for any Cisco ISE 2.1 environment, especially where administrators use the web interface. It is not described as actively exploited, but it can affect session integrity and sensitive browser-accessible data. Mitigation focus: Check Cisco's advisory for fixed releases or vendor-directed remediation.; Prioritize upgrade or remediation for Cisco ISE Software 2.1 deployments.; Restrict access to ISE web interfaces to trusted networks and users..

Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')

Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting') represents a recurring weakness pattern that can create exploitable paths when design, validation, or implementation controls are missing.
