Summary
A vulnerability in the web framework of Cisco GSS could allow an
unauthenticated, remote attacker to conduct a cross-site request forgery
(CSRF) attack against the user of the web interface. The vulnerability is due
to insufficient CSRF protections.
An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by convincing the user of the
affected system to follow a malicious link or visit an attacker-controlled
website. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to submit arbitrary
requests to the affected device via the affected web browser with the
privileges of the user.
