Cisco Unified Communications Products Arbitrary File Read Vulnerability

<p>A vulnerability in the web-based management interface of Cisco&nbsp;Unified Communications Manager (Unified CM) and Cisco&nbsp;Unified Communications Manager Session Management Edition (Unified CM SME) could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to read arbitrary files from the underlying operating system.</p>
<p>This vulnerability exists because the web-based management interface does not properly validate user-supplied input. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted HTTP request that contains directory traversal character sequences to an affected system. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to access sensitive files on the underlying operating system.</p>
<p>Cisco&nbsp;has released software updates that address this vulnerability. There are no workarounds that address this vulnerability.</p>
