Cisco Identity Services Engine Stored Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerabilities [Multiple CVE’s]

CVE numbers CVE-2021-1603 and CVE-2021-1604 and CVE-2021-1605 and CVE-2021-1606 and CVE-2021-1607.

Multiple vulnerabilities in the web-based management interface of Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to conduct a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) attack against a user.

These vulnerabilities exist because the web-based management interface does not sufficiently validate user-supplied input. An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by injecting malicious code into specific pages of the interface. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary script code in the context of the affected interface or access sensitive, browser-based information. To exploit these vulnerabilities, the attacker would need valid administrative credentials.

Cisco has released software updates that address these vulnerabilities. There are no workarounds that address these vulnerabilities.

Vulnerable Products

At the time of publication, these vulnerabilities affected Cisco ISE releases earlier than the following:

  • 2.6 Patch 9
  • 2.7 Patch 4
