CWE Code: 352
Vulnerability Type: privilege_escalation
CVSS Score: 6.8
CWE Name:  Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)
Summary: a vulnerability in the web-based management interface of cisco iot field network director (iot-fnd) could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to conduct a cross-site request forgery (csrf) attack and alter the data of existing users and groups on an affected device. the vulnerability is due to insufficient csrf protections for the web-based management interface on an affected device. an attacker could exploit this vulnerability by persuading a user of the interface to follow a malicious link. a successful exploit could allow the attacker to perform arbitrary actions with the privilege level of the affected user. if the user has administrative privileges, the attacker could create a new, privileged account to obtain full control over the device interface. this vulnerability affects connected grid network management system, if running a software release prior to iot-fnd release 3.0; and iot field network director, if running a software release prior to iot-fnd release 4.1.1-6 or 4.2.0-123. cisco bug ids: cscvi02448.
Access Authentication: NONE
Access Complexity: MEDIUM
