Summary

    A vulnerability in the REST API of Cisco Enterprise NFV
Infrastructure Software (NFVIS) could allow an authenticated, remote
attacker to overwrite certain files that should be restricted on an

on an affected system. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by
uploading a file using the REST API. A successful exploit could allow an
attacker to overwrite and upload files, which could degrade the
functionality of the affected system.

Workarounds

    There are no workarounds that address this vulnerability.


Fixed Software

    Cisco has released free software updates that address the
vulnerability described in this advisory. Customers may only install and
expect support for software versions and feature sets for which they
have purchased a license. By installing, downloading, accessing, or
otherwise using such software upgrades, customers agree to follow the
terms of the Cisco software license:
    https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/end-user-license-agreement.html

    Additionally, customers may only download software for which they
have a valid license, procured from Cisco directly, or through a Cisco
authorized reseller or partner. In most cases this will be a maintenance
upgrade to software that was previously purchased. Free security
software updates do not entitle customers to a new software license,
additional software feature sets, or major revision upgrades.


    When considering software upgrades, customers are advised to
regularly consult the advisories for Cisco products, which are available
from the Cisco Security Advisories page, to determine exposure and a
complete upgrade solution.

    In all cases, customers should ensure that the devices to be
upgraded contain sufficient memory and confirm that current hardware and
software configurations will continue to be supported properly by the
new release. If the information is not clear, customers are advised to
contact the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) or their contracted
maintenance providers.

    Customers Without Service Contracts

    Customers who purchase directly from Cisco but do not hold a Cisco
service contract and customers who make purchases through third-party
vendors but are unsuccessful in obtaining fixed software through their
point of sale should obtain upgrades by contacting the Cisco TAC:
https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/web/tsd-cisco-worldwide-contacts.html

    Customers should have the product serial number available and be
prepared to provide the URL of this advisory as evidence of entitlement
to a free upgrade.


    Fixed Releases

    Cisco fixed this vulnerability in Cisco Enterprise NFVIS releases
4.2.1 and later.
