Cisco NX-OS 6.2(10) on Nexus and MDS 9000 devices allows local users to execute arbitrary OS commands by entering crafted tar parameters in the CLI, aka Bug ID CSCus44856.

The CLI parser in Cisco NX-OS 4.1(2)E1(1), 6.2(11b), 6.2(12), 7.2(0)ZZ(99.1), 7.2(0)ZZ(99.3), and 9.1(1)SV1(3.1.8) on Nexus devices allows local users to execute arbitrary OS commands via crafted characters in a filename, aka Bug IDs CSCuv08491, CSCuv08443, CSCuv08480, CSCuv08448, CSCuu99291, CSCuv08434, and CSCuv08436.

The Python interpreter in Cisco NX-OS 6.2(8a) on Nexus 7000 devices allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions and delete an arbitrary VDC's files by leveraging administrative privileges in one VDC, aka Bug ID CSCur08416.

The banner (aka MOTD) implementation in Cisco NX-OS 4.1(2)E1(1f) on Nexus 4000 devices, 5.2(1)SV3(2.1) on Nexus 1000V devices, 6.0(2)N2(2) on Nexus 5000 devices, 6.2(11) on MDS 9000 devices, 6.2(12) on Nexus 7000 devices, 7.0(3) on Nexus 9000 devices, and 7.2(0)ZN(99.67) on Nexus 3000 devices allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (login process reset) via an unspecified terminal-session request during TELNET session setup, aka Bug IDs CSCuo10554, CSCuu75466, CSCuu75471, CSCuu75484, CSCuu75498, CSCuu77170, and CSCuu77182.

The DHCP implementation in the PowerOn Auto Provisioning (POAP) feature in Cisco NX-OS does not properly restrict the initialization process, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands as root by sending crafted response packets on the local network, aka Bug ID CSCur14589.

The HSRP implementation in Cisco NX-OS 6.2(2a) and earlier allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and cause a denial of service (group-member state modification and traffic blackholing) via malformed HSRP packets, aka Bug ID CSCup11309.

The Message Transfer Service (MTS) in Cisco NX-OS before 6.2(7) on MDS 9000 devices and 6.0 before 6.0(2) on Nexus 7000 devices allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and kernel panic) via a large volume of crafted traffic, aka Bug ID CSCtw98915.

Directory traversal vulnerability in the command-line interface in Cisco NX-OS 6.2(2a) and earlier allows local users to read arbitrary files via unspecified input, aka Bug ID CSCul05217.

Cisco NX-OS 6.2(2) on Nexus 7000 switches allows local users to cause a denial of service via crafted sed input, aka Bug ID CSCui56136.
