Cisco Webex Contact Center Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability
Notes
Summary: A vulnerability in the Desktop Agent functionality of Cisco Webex Contact Center could have allowed an unauthenticated, remote attacker to conduct cross-site scripting attacks. Cisco has addressed this vulnerability in the Cisco Webex Contact Center service, and no customer action is needed.
This vulnerability existed because HTML and script content was not properly handled. Prior to this vulnerability being addressed, an attacker could have exploited this vulnerability by persuading a user to follow a malicious link. A successful exploit could have allowed the attacker to steal sensitive information from the browser, including authentication and session information.
As mentioned, Cisco has addressed this vulnerability in the Cisco Webex Contact Center service, and no customer action is necessary to update on-premises software or devices. There are no workarounds that address this vulnerability.
Vulnerable Products: This vulnerability affected Cisco Webex Contact Center, which is cloud based.
Products Confirmed Not Vulnerable: Only products listed in the Vulnerable Products ["#vp"] section of this advisory are known to have been affected by this vulnerability.
Workarounds: There are no workarounds that address this vulnerability.
Fixed Software: Cisco has addressed this vulnerability in Cisco Webex Contact Center, which is cloud based. No user action is required.
Customers who need additional information are advised to contact the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) or their contracted maintenance providers.
Vulnerability Policy: To learn about Cisco security vulnerability disclosure policies and publications, see the Security Vulnerability Policy ["http://www.cisco.com/web/about/security/psirt/security_vulnerability_policy.html"]. This document also contains instructions for obtaining fixed software and receiving security vulnerability information from Cisco.
Exploitation and Public Announcements: The Cisco Product Security Incident Response Team (PSIRT) is not aware of any public announcements or malicious use of the vulnerability that is described in this advisory.
Source: Cisco would like to thank Jakub Nowicki and Bartlomiej Lipka of NTT Data for reporting this vulnerability.
