A vulnerability in the fabric interconnect of the Cisco Unified Computing System could allow an authenticated, local malicious user to execute scripts with elevated privileges. The vulnerability occurs because all scripts are executed at the same privilege level. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by executing an existing script. An exploit could allow the malicious user to execute arbitrary command-line interface (CLI) commands. Cisco has confirmed the vulnerability in a security notice and released software updates. To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker must be able to authenticate and have local access to a targeted device. These access requirements decrease 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.
