Summary

Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Cisco products, the most severe of which could allow for remote code execution. 


  • Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center (FMC) is a centralized management platform for Cisco firewalls.
  • Cisco Secure Firewall Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Software is the core operating system that powers the Cisco ASA family of firewalls.
  • Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense (FTD) is a unified software image for Cisco Firepower appliances that combines ASA firewall functionality with Snort IPS, URL filtering, and advanced malware protection (AMP).


Successful exploitation of the most severe of these vulnerabilities could allow for remote code execution as root, which may lead to the complete compromise of the affected device.
