Mitigations

Установка обновлений из доверенных источников. В связи со сложившейся обстановкой и введенными санкциями против Российской Федерации рекомендуется устанавливать обновления программного обеспечения только после оценки всех сопутствующих рисков. Компенсирующие меры: - отключение функции загрузки образов операционной системы на точки доступа (AP) по внешнему каналу; - использование межсетевого экрана уровня приложений (WAF) для фильтрации HTTP-трафика; - сегментирование сети с целью ограничения доступа к уязвимому устройству из других подсетей; - использование систем обнаружения и предотвращения вторжений для обнаружения (выявления, регистрации) и реагирования на попытки эксплуатации уязвимостей; - использование SIEM-систем для отслеживания попыток эксплуатации уязвимости; - ограничение доступа к устройству из внешних сетей (Интернет).

CVE-2025-20188 (GCVE-0-2025-20188)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2025-05-07 17:34 – Updated: 2025-06-06 16:24

Summary

A vulnerability in the Out-of-Band Access Point (AP) Image Download, the Clean Air Spectral Recording, and the client debug bundles features of Cisco IOS XE Software for Wireless LAN Controllers (WLCs) could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to upload arbitrary files to an affected system. This vulnerability is due to the presence of a hard-coded JSON Web Token (JWT) on an affected system. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending crafted HTTPS requests to the AP file upload interface. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to upload files, perform path traversal, and execute arbitrary commands with root privileges.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
