Description
A vulnerability in the administrative web interface of Cisco Identity Services
Engine (ISE) could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to access sensitive
information or modify certain device settings.
The vulnerability is due to improper controls on certain pages in the web

device. This access requirement decreases the likelihood of a successful
exploit.
Cisco indicates through the CVSS score that functional exploit code exists;
however, the code is not known to be publicly available.
Vendor Announcements
Cisco has released bug ID CSCui72087 for registered users, which contains
additional details and an up-to-date list of affected product versions.
Impact
An authenticated, remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to gain
elevated privileges on an affected device. A successful exploit could allow
the attacker to access sensitive information or modify certain device
settings, which could be used to conduct further attacks.
Technical Information
The vulnerability is due to improper controls on certain pages in the web
interface by an affected device.
An attacker with authenticated access to the administrative web interface
