(APIC) devices could allow an authenticated, local attacker to gain root-level privileges.

The vulnerability is due to the use of incorrect installation and permissions settings for binary
files during installation of the system software on a device. An attacker could exploit this
vulnerability by logging in to the device and escalating their privileges. A successful exploit
could allow the attacker to gain root-level privileges and take full control of the device.

Cisco has released software updates that address this vulnerability. Workarounds that address this
vulnerability are not available.");
