Details ======= Cisco Unified ICME, Unified ICMH, UCCE, UCCH and SUCCE are a suite of strategic platforms that enable customers to provide intelligent routing and call treatment with blending of multiple communication channels. A vulnerability exists in software version 7.1(5) for Cisco Unified ICME, Unified ICMH, UCCE, UCCH and SUCCE editions that may enable any Windows Active Directory domain defined user to obtain unauthorized privilege levels. This would provide Windows Active Directory users the ability to view Web View report information for any call center instance. Cisco SUCCE is also impacted by unauthorized access to the Web Admin tool, which could result in the ability to change the application configuration, including editing application rights. This vulnerability is documented in Cisco Bug ID: CSCsj55686 Vulnerability Scoring Details ============================= Cisco is providing 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. Cisco will provide a base and temporal score. Customers can then compute environmental scores to assist in determining the impact of the vulnerability in individual networks. CVSS is a standards based scoring method that conveys vulnerability severity and helps determine urgency and priority of response. 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?target=new&version=2.0&vector=AV:N/AC:L/Au:S/C:C/I:C/A:C/E:F/RL:OF/RC:C CSCsj55686 - AD users have privileges to log into Web View and Web Admin tools CVSS Base Score - 9 Access Vector - Network Access Complexity - Low Authentication - Single Confidentiality Impact - Complete Integrity Impact - Complete Availability Impact - Complete CVSS Temporal Score - 7.4 Exploitability - Functional Remediation Level - Official-Fix Report Confidence - Confirmed Impact ====== Successful exploitation of the vulnerability described in this document may provide any user defined in the Windows Active Directory domain with unauthorized access to view Web View information for any ICM or Contact Center instance. In addition, the vulnerability provides unauthorized access to the Web Admin tool for any user defined in the Windows Active Directory domain. It should be noted that Web Admin is only used with Cisco SUCCE. Access to Web Admin may result in the ability to change the application configuration, including editing application rights. 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. +---------------------------------------+ | Software | Patch | Maintenance | | Release | | | |----------+---------+------------------| | | ICM7.1 | 7.2(3) | | 7.1(5) | (5) | (Available | | | _ES46 | December 2007) | +---------------------------------------+ Contact Center and ICM maintenance software can be downloaded from the following URL: http://tools.cisco.com/support/downloads/go/MDFTree.x?butype=cc Workarounds =========== Any Windows users defined in Active Directory that are not part of the ICM/IPCC Active Directory hierarchy will have full access to the Web View and Web Admin tools. There is no workaround. Users defined in the Windows Active Directory domain where the IPCC servers reside and then associated to the instance of the ICM/IPCC Active Directory hierarchy will have correct permissions. Filters such as Transit ACLs can then be used to allow access to the Administration Workstation from only the trusted hosts. Filters that deny HTTP packets using TCP port 80 and HTTPS packets using TCP port 443 should be deployed throughout the network as part of a tACL policy for protection of traffic that enters the network at ingress access points. This policy should be configured to protect the network device where the filter is applied and other devices behind it. Filters for HTTP packets using TCP port 80 and HTTPS packets using TCP port 443 should also be deployed in front of vulnerable network devices so that traffic is only allowed from trusted clients. Additional information about tACLs is available in "Transit Access Control Lists: Filtering at Your Edge: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk648/tk361/technologies_white_paper09186a00801afc76.shtml. Additional mitigations that can be deployed on Cisco devices within the network are available in the Cisco Applied Intelligence companion document for this advisory: http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-air-20071017-IPCC.shtml.
