Summary
A vulnerability in the fabric interconnect (FI) of Cisco Unified Computing
System could allow an authenticated, local attacker to execute arbitrary
commands on the Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) with elevated
privileges.
The vulnerability is due to improper input validation in the MCTOOLS command
in the FI software. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by gaining
local, shell-level, or debug-level access to the underlying operating system
on the FI and injecting commands into the MCTOOLS commands that would be sent
to the BMC. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary
commands on the BMC with elevated privileges.
