HTTP: Cisco Unified Operations Manager Cross Site Scripting
This signature detects attempts to exploit a known Cross Site Scripting vulnerability in Cisco Unified Operation Manager. It is due to improper user input filtering. A remote attacker can exploit this by enticing a target user to open a web page. In a successful code injection attack, the behavior of the target host is entirely dependent on the intended function of the injected code and executes within the security context of the currently logged in user.
Extended Description
Cisco Unified Operations Manager is prone to multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input. An attacker may leverage these issues to execute arbitrary script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site. This may allow the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials. Other attacks may also be possible. This issue is being tracked by Cisco Bug ID CSCtn61716. Cisco Unified Operations Manager versions prior to 8.6 are vulnerable.
