A vulnerability in the restricted shell of Cisco Expressway Series could allow an authenticated, local attacker to perform command injection attacks on the underlying operating system and elevate privileges to root. To exploit this vulnerability, the attacker must have Administrator-level credentials with read-write privileges on an affected device. This vulnerability is due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by submitting a series of crafted CLI commands. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to escape the restricted shell and gain root privileges on the underlying operating system of the affected device. Note: Cisco Expressway Series refers to Cisco Expressway Control (Expressway-C) devices and Cisco Expressway Edge (Expressway-E) devices.

A vulnerability in the received packet parser of Cisco Expressway Series and Cisco TelePresence Video Communication Server (VCS) software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a reload of the affected system, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition. The vulnerability is due to insufficient size validation of user-supplied data. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending crafted H.224 data in Real-Time Transport Protocol (RTP) packets in an H.323 call. An exploit could allow the attacker to overflow a buffer in a cache that belongs to the received packet parser, which will result in a crash of the application, resulting in a DoS condition. All versions of Cisco Expressway Series Software and Cisco TelePresence VCS Software prior to version X8.8.2 are vulnerable. Cisco has released software updates that address this vulnerability. There are no workarounds that address this vulnerability. Cisco Bug IDs: CSCus99263.

The Mobile and Remote Access (MRA) component in Cisco TelePresence Video Communication Server (VCS) X8.1 through X8.7 and Expressway X8.1 through X8.6 mishandles certificates, which allows remote attackers to bypass authentication via an arbitrary trusted certificate, aka Bug ID CSCuz64601.

Cisco TelePresence Video Communications Server (VCS) X8.x before X8.7.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (service disruption) via a crafted URI in a SIP header, aka Bug ID CSCuy43258.

Cisco TelePresence Video Communication Server (VCS) X8.5.1 and X8.5.2 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (VoIP outage) via a crafted SIP message, aka Bug ID CSCuu43026.

Cisco TelePresence Video Communication Server (VCS) X8.1 through X8.7, as used in conjunction with Jabber Guest, allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive call-statistics information via a direct request to an unspecified URL, aka Bug ID CSCux73362.

Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Cisco TelePresence Video Communication Server (VCS) X8.5.1 allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of arbitrary users, aka Bug ID CSCuv72412.

Cisco TelePresence Video Communication Server (VCS) Expressway X8.5.1 and X8.5.2 allows local users to write to arbitrary files via an unspecified symlink attack, aka Bug ID CSCuv11969.

The password-change feature in the administrative web interface in Cisco TelePresence Video Communication Server (VCS) Expressway X8.5.1 improperly performs authorization, which allows remote authenticated users to reset arbitrary active-user passwords via unspecified vectors, aka Bug ID CSCuv12338.

The System Snapshot feature in Cisco TelePresence Video Communication Server (VCS) Expressway X8.5.1 allows remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive password-hash information by reading the snapshot file, aka Bug ID CSCuv40422.
