Summary
A vulnerability in the CLI of Cisco Firepower Extensible Operating System
(FXOS) and NX-OS System Software could allow an authenticated, local attacker
to perform a command injection attack. The vulnerability is due to
insufficient input validation of command arguments to the CLI parser. An
attacker could exploit this vulnerability by injecting crafted command
arguments into a vulnerable CLI command. An exploit could allow the attacker
to execute arbitrary commands at the user's privilege level. On products that
support multiple virtual device contexts (VDCs), this vulnerability could
allow the attacker to execute commands at the user's privilege level outside
the user's environment. There are no workarounds that address this
vulnerability.
