According to its self-reported version, Cisco Email Security Appliance is affected by an information disclosure vulnerability that could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to retrieve sensitive information from an affected device, including user credentials.
This vulnerability is due to weak enforcement of back-end authorization checks. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted HTTP request to an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to obtain confidential data that is stored on the affected device.
