Cisco Prime Collaboration Assurance Cross-Site Request Forgery Vulnerability

A vulnerability in the web-based management interface of Cisco Prime Collaboration Assurance could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to conduct a cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attack and perform arbitrary actions on an affected device.

The vulnerability is due to insufficient CSRF protections for the web-based management interface of an affected device. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by persuading a user of the interface to follow a crafted link. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to perform arbitrary actions on a targeted device via a web browser and with the privileges of the user.

For additional information about cross-site request forgery attacks and potential mitigation methods, see the Cisco Applied Mitigation Bulletin Understanding Cross-Site Request Forgery Threat Vectors [“https://sec.cloudapps.cisco.com/security/center/viewAMBAlert.x?alertId=28726”].

There are no workarounds that address this vulnerability.
