from an affected system.
For more information about these vulnerabilities, see the Details section
of this security advisory.
There are no workarounds that address these vulnerabilities.

Affected Products
o Vulnerable Products
These vulnerabilities affect Cisco Finesse. For information about affected
software releases, consult the Cisco bug IDs at the top of this advisory.
Products Confirmed Not Vulnerable
Only products listed in the Vulnerable Products section of this advisory
are known to be affected by this vulnerability.
Details
o Two vulnerabilities in the web-based management interface of Cisco Finesse
could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to conduct a server-side
request forgery (SSRF) attack or retrieve a cleartext password from an
affected system.
The vulnerabilities are not dependent on one another; exploitation of one
of the vulnerabilities is not required to exploit the other vulnerability.
In addition, a software release that is affected by one of the
vulnerabilities may not be affected by the other vulnerability.
Details about the vulnerabilities are as follows.
Cisco Finesse HTTP Request Processing Server-Side Request Forgery
Vulnerability
A vulnerability in the web-based management interface of Cisco Finesse
could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a Cisco Finesse
server to submit an HTTP request to an arbitrary host. This type of attack
is commonly referred to as a server-side request forgery (SSRF) attack.
The vulnerability is due to insufficient access controls for the Cisco
Finesse API that supports gadgets integration. An attacker could exploit
this vulnerability by submitting a maliciously crafted HTTP request to a
Cisco Finesse server.
The CVE ID for this vulnerability is: CVE-2018-0398
The Security Impact Rating (SIR) for this vulnerability is: Medium
The Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Base score for this
vulnerability is: 5.8
The Cisco bug ID for this vulnerability is: CSCvg71018
Cisco Finesse Information Disclosure Vulnerability
A vulnerability in the web-based management interface of Cisco Finesse
could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to retrieve a cleartext
password from an affected system.
The vulnerability exists because the affected software prefills the
Password field of the login form for the web-based management interface
with a password that was previously saved and is stored in an internal
database for the affected software. An attacker could exploit this
vulnerability by viewing the HTML source of a login form for the web-based
management interface of the affected software. A successful exploit could
allow the attacker to view and retrieve a cleartext password from an
affected system.
The CVE ID for this vulnerability is: CVE-2018-0399
The SIR for this vulnerability is: Medium
The CVSS Base score for this vulnerability is: 5.3
The Cisco bug ID for this vulnerability is: CSCvg71044
Workarounds
o There are no workarounds that address these vulnerabilities.
Fixed Software
o For information about fixed software releases, consult the Cisco bug ID(s)
at the top of this advisory.
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 be upgraded
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.
Exploitation and Public Announcements
o The Cisco Product Security Incident Response Team (PSIRT) is not aware of
any public announcements or malicious use of the vulnerabilities that are
described in this advisory.
Source
o Cisco would like to thank Filip Waeytens of NCI Agency Cyber Security for
reporting these vulnerabilities.
