According to its self-reported version, Cisco IOS XE Software is affected by an authorization bypass vulnerability in the REST API due to insufficient authorization checks for requests that are sent to the REST API of the affected software. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, by sending a malicious request via the REST API, in order to selectively bypass authorization checks for the REST API and use the API to perform privileged actions on an affected device.
Please see the included Cisco BIDs and Cisco Security Advisory for more information.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
