TITLE

Cisco UCCX of bootstrap Directory traversal vulnerability in services

DESCRIPTION

Directory traversal vulnerability in the bootstrap service in Cisco Unified Contact Center Express (UCCX) 7.0 before 7.0(1)SR4 and 7.0(2), unspecified 6.0 versions, and 5.0 before 5.0(2)SR3 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via a crafted bootstrap message to TCP port 6295. Cisco Unified Contact Center Express is prone to a directory-traversal vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this issue to view any file on the computer through the bootstrap service. Successful exploits may lead to other attacks. This issue is tracked by Cisco BugID CSCsx76165. These vulnerabilities are independent of each other. Exploitation of these vulnerabilities could result in a DoS condition or an information disclosure. This advisory is posted at: http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20100609-uccx.shtml Affected Products ================= Cisco UCCX is an integrated "contact center in a box" solution for use in deployments of up to 300 agents. Vulnerable Products +------------------ The vulnerabilities described in this document affect the following products: * Cisco UCCX versions 5.x, 6.x, and 7.x * Cisco Customer Response Solution (CRS) versions 5.x, 6.x, and 7.x * Cisco Unified IP Interactive Voice Response (Cisco Unified IP IVR) versions 5.x, 6.x, and 7.x Products Confirmed Not Vulnerable +-------------------------------- No other Cisco products are currently known to be affected by these vulnerabilities. Details ======= Denial of Service Vulnerabilities +-------------------------------- A DoS vulnerability exists in the computer telephony integration (CTI) server component of the Cisco UCCX product. The CTI server is only started when the Integrated Call Distribution (ICD) license is enabled, Cisco Unified IP Interactive Voice Response (Cisco Unified IP IVR) deployments are not affected by the CTI server DoS vulnerability. The CTI server listens by default on TCP port 42027, although the port number can be changed in the System Port Parameters screen. This vulnerability is triggered by malformed CTI messages addressed to the vulnerable systems that could cause the CTI server and the Cisco Unified CCX Node Manager to fail, and all active agents will be logged out. The DoS condition will be temporal and the Cisco UCCX system will become operational again once the node manager and the CTI server complete their automatic restart. This vulnerability is documented in Cisco Bug ID CSCso89629 and has been assigned CVE ID CVE-2010-1570. This vulnerability is triggered by bootstrap messages addressed to TCP port 6295. The bootstrap service is used to keep the UCCX configuration synchronized across servers in a high-availability deployment model. All deployment modes can be affected, such as ICD, ICM and IP-IVR, but only if a second node has been added to the configuration. (Nodes can be listed using the Cisco UCCX Administration Web interface with the Server option in the System pull-down taskbar). A high-availability license is not required for a system to be vulnerable. This vulnerability is documented in Cisco Bug ID CSCsx76165 and has been assigned CVE ID CVE-2010-1571. Vulnerability Scoring Details ============================= Cisco has provided scores for the vulnerabilities in this advisory based on the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS). The CVSS scoring in this Security Advisory is done in accordance with CVSS version 2.0. CVSS is a standards-based scoring method that conveys vulnerability severity and helps determine urgency and priority of response. Cisco has provided a base and temporal score. Customers can then compute environmental scores to assist in determining the impact of the vulnerability in individual networks. Cisco has provided an FAQ to answer additional questions regarding CVSS at: http://www.cisco.com/web/about/security/intelligence/cvss-qandas.html Cisco has also provided a CVSS calculator to help compute the environmental impact for individual networks at: http://intellishield.cisco.com/security/alertmanager/cvss CSCso89629 - CTI Service DoS Vulnerability (UCCX) CVSS Base Score - 7.8 Access Vector - Network Access Complexity - Low Authentication - None Confidentiality Impact - None Integrity Impact - None Availability Impact - Complete CVSS Temporal Score - 6.4 Exploitability - Functional Remediation Level - Official-Fix Report Confidence - Confirmed CSCsx76165 - Bootstrap Service Directory Traversal Vulnerability (UCCX) CVSS Base Score - 7.8 Access Vector - Network Access Complexity - Low Authentication - None Confidentiality Impact - None Integrity Impact - None Availability Impact - Complete CVSS Temporal Score - 6.4 Exploitability - Functional Remediation Level - Official-Fix Report Confidence - Confirmed Impact ====== Successful exploitation of the Cisco UCCX CTI server DoS vulnerability will cause the agents to logout, and the Cisco UCCX server will be temporarily unavailable to agents until the node manager service and CTI server complete their automatic restart. Repeated attempts to exploit this vulnerability could result in a sustained DoS condition. Software Versions and Fixes =========================== When considering software upgrades, also consult http://www.cisco.com/go/psirt and any subsequent advisories to determine exposure and a complete upgrade solution. In all cases, customers should exercise caution to be certain the devices to be upgraded contain sufficient memory and that current hardware and software configurations will continue to be supported properly by the new release. If the information is not clear, contact the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) or your contracted maintenance provider for assistance. The following tables indicate the versions of Cisco UCCX affected by the vulnerabilities described in this document. All the vulnerabilities are fixed in the latest versions of the products.
