A vulnerability in the Device Manager GUI of the Cisco ACE 4710 Application Control Engine could allow an authenticated, remote malicious user to execute any command-line interface (CLI) command on the ACE with admin user privileges. The vulnerability is due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by crafting a malicious HTTP POST request with injected CLI commands inside the value of a POST parameter value. An exploit could allow the malicious user to bypass the role-based access control (RBAC) restrictions enforced by the Cisco ACE Device Manager GUI. Cisco has released software updates that address this vulnerability. Workarounds that mitigate this vulnerability are available.
