Cisco Unity Connection Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability

A vulnerability in the web framework of Cisco Unity Connection could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to conduct a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack against the user of the web interface of the affected system.

The vulnerability is due to insufficient input validation of certain parameters passed via HTTP GET or POST methods. An attacker who can convince a user to follow an attacker-supplied link could cause arbitrary script or HTML code to be executed on the user’s browser in the context of the affected site.

Cisco has released software updates that address this vulnerability. Workarounds that mitigate this vulnerability are not available.
