CVE-2018-0086
CWE-400
Summary
A vulnerability in the application server of the Cisco Unified Customer Voice
Portal (CVP) could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a denial
of service (DoS) condition on the affected device.
The vulnerability is due to malformed SIP INVITE traffic received on the CVP
during communications with the Cisco Virtualized Voice Browser (VVB). An
attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending malformed SIP INVITE
traffic to the targeted appliance. An exploit could allow the attacker to
impact the availability of services and data on the device, causing a DoS
condition.
Cisco has released software updates that address this vulnerability. There are
no workarounds that address this vulnerability.
This advisory is available at the following link:
https://tools.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/cisco-sa-20180117-cvp
Affected Products
Vulnerable Products
This vulnerability affects Cisco Unified CVP running any software release
prior to 11.6(1).
To determine which release of Cisco Unified CVP software is running,
administrators can use a web browser to connect to the Cisco Unified CVP
client via HTTPS. The release number appears on the software home page. The
following is an example of the text that may appear on the home page:
Cisco Unified Customer Voice Portal
Version 11.5(1)
Products Confirmed Not Vulnerable
No other Cisco products are currently known to be affected by this
vulnerability.
Workarounds
There are no workarounds that address this vulnerability; however, there are
ways to mitigate this vulnerability.
1) Ensure the Cisco UCCE (Unified Contact Center Enterprise) infrastructure is
configured to only allow incoming SIP traffic from trusted IP addresses.
2) Ensure third-party gateway(s) residing between the CVP & ISP are enabled
for content filtering to drop packets containing malformed SIP headers or
malicious inputs. Fixed Software
Cisco has released free software updates that address the vulnerability
described in this advisory. Customers may only install and expect support for
software versions and feature sets for which they have purchased a license. By
installing, downloading, accessing, or otherwise using such software upgrades,
customers agree to follow the terms of the Cisco software license:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/general/warranty/English/EU1KEN_.html
Additionally, customers may only download software for which they have a valid
license, procured from Cisco directly, or through a Cisco authorized reseller
or partner. In most cases this will be a maintenance upgrade to software that
was previously purchased. Free security software updates do not entitle
customers to a new software license, additional software feature sets, or
major revision upgrades.
When considering software upgrades, customers are advised to regularly consult
the advisories for Cisco products, which are available from the Cisco Security
Advisories and Alerts page, to determine exposure and a complete upgrade
solution.
In all cases, customers should ensure that the devices to upgrade contain
sufficient memory and confirm that current hardware and software
configurations will continue to be supported properly by the new release. If
the information is not clear, customers are advised to contact the Cisco
Technical Assistance Center (TAC) or their contracted maintenance providers.
Customers Without Service Contracts
Customers who purchase directly from Cisco but do not hold a Cisco service
contract and customers who make purchases through third-party vendors but are
unsuccessful in obtaining fixed software through their point of sale should
obtain upgrades by contacting the Cisco TAC:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/support/tsd_cisco_worldwide_contacts.html
Customers should have the product serial number available and be prepared to
provide the URL of this advisory as evidence of entitlement to a free upgrade.
Fixed Releases
This vulnerability is fixed in Cisco Unified CVP software release 11.6(1) or
later. The software can be downloaded from the Software Center on Cisco.com by
navigating to Downloads Home > Products > Customer Collaboration > Options for
Contact Center Solutions > Unified Customer Voice Portal.
Exploitation and Public Announcements
The Cisco Product Security Incident Response Team (PSIRT) is not aware of any
public announcements or malicious use of the vulnerability that is described
in this advisory.

This vulnerability was found during the resolution of a Cisco TAC support
case.
