Cisco Data Center Network Manager processImageSave_jsp Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Cisco Data Center Network Manager. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the processImageSave_jsp servlet which contains an arbitrary file creation vulnerability. When the ‘mode’ argument of a GET request is set to ‘save’, a remote attacker can specify other arguments that allow for control of the data and location of the file. A remote attacker can abuse this to execute remote code under the context of the SYSTEM user.
