"The Cisco Application Control Engine (ACE) software installed on the
remote Cisco ACE 4710 device is an A5 version prior to A5(3.0). It is,
therefore, affected by a remote command injection vulnerability in the
device manager GUI due to improper validation of user-supplied input
in HTTP POST requests. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit
this to bypass the role-based access control (RBAC) restrictions and
execute CLI commands with 'admin' privileges.");
