Summary

A vulnerability in directory permissions of Cisco Enterprise NFV Infrastructure Software (NFVIS) could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to perform a directory traversal attack on a limited set of restricted directories. The issue is due to a flaw in the logic governing directory permissions. Successful exploitation could allow overwriting files on the device.

Risk Assessment

An attacker with a valid user account could overwrite system files, potentially leading to integrity compromise or unauthorized configuration changes.

Recommendation

Apply Cisco-provided updates for NFVIS and restrict management interface access to trusted networks only.

Original NVD description (English source)

A vulnerability in the directory permissions of Cisco Enterprise NFV Infrastructure Software (NFVIS) could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to perform a directory traversal attack on a limited set of restricted directories. The vulnerability is due to a flaw in the logic that governs directory permissions. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by using capabilities that are not controlled by the role-based access control (RBAC) mechanisms of the software. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to overwrite files on an affected device.
