"According to its self-reported version, Cisco IOS-XE Software is affected by a web services remote code exeuction
vulnerability:
- A vulnerability in the web services of Cisco Secure Firewall Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Software, Cisco
Secure Firewall Threat Defense (FTD) Software, Cisco IOS Software, Cisco IOS XE Software, and Cisco IOS XR Software
could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker (Cisco ASA and FTD Software) or authenticated, remote attacker
(Cisco IOS, IOS XE, and IOS XR Software) with low user privileges to execute arbitrary code on an affected device.
This vulnerability is due to improper validation of user-supplied input in HTTP requests. An attacker could exploit
this vulnerability by sending crafted HTTP requests to a targeted web service on an affected device after obtaining
additional information about the system, overcoming exploit mitigations, or both. A successful exploit could allow
the attacker to execute arbitrary code as root, which may lead to the complete compromise of the affected device.
(CVE-2025-20363)
