A vulnerability in the web-based management interface of Cisco Prime Infrastructure (PI) and Cisco Evolved Programmable Network (EPN) Manager could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to execute code with root-level privileges on the underlying operating system. This vulnerability exist because the software improperly validates user-supplied input. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by uploading a malicious file to the administrative web interface. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute code with root-level privileges on the underlying operating system.

Multiple vulnerabilities in the web-based management interface of Cisco Prime Infrastructure (PI) and Cisco Evolved Programmable Network (EPN) Manager could allow a remote attacker to gain the ability to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges on the underlying operating system. One of these issues, CVE-2019-1821, can be exploited by an unauthenticated attacker that has network access to the affected administrative interface. The second and third issues, CVE-2019-1822 and CVE-2019-1823, require that an attacker have valid credentials to authenticate to the impacted administrative interface. These vulnerabilities exist because the software improperly validates user-supplied input. An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by uploading a malicious file to the administrative web interface. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute code with root-level privileges on the underlying operating system. Cisco has released software updates that address these vulnerabilities. There are no workarounds that address these vulnerabilities.
