Cisco WLC Web-Based Management Interface Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability

A vulnerability in the web-based management interface of the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) could allow an unauthenticated,
remote attacker to conduct a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack against a user of the web interface of the affected system.

The vulnerability is due to insufficient input validation of a user-supplied value. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by convincing a
user to click a crafted URL.

Cisco has confirmed the vulnerability in a security notice; however, software updates are unavailable.

To exploit the vulnerability, the attacker may provide a link that directs a user to a malicious site and use misleading language or instructions to persuade the user to follow the provided link.

Cisco indicates through the CVSS score that functional exploit code exists; however, the code is not known to be publicly available.
