According to its self-reported version, Cisco NX-OS Software is affected by a command injection vulnerability due to insufficient validation of arguments passed to a specific CLI command on an affected device. An authenticated, local attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary commands on the underlying Linux operating system with root privileges.
Please see the included Cisco BID 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.
