VAR-201310-0033
Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-11 23:04Cisco NX-OS allows local users to gain privileges, and read or modify arbitrary files, via the sed (1) r and (2) w commands, aka Bug IDs CSCts56559, CSCts56565, CSCts56570, and CSCts56574. The Cisco Nexus Series switches are data center switches. Adopt the Cisco Nexus OS operating system. Cisco NX-OS is prone to a local arbitrary file-access vulnerability. This may lead to further attacks. This issue is being tracked by Cisco bug IDs CSCts56559, CSCts56565, CSCts56570, and CSCts56574
