Technical details

A blind SQL injection vulnerability exists in a subset of REST APIs within Cisco Prime Infrastructure and Cisco Evolved Programmable Network Manager (EPNM). The flaw is caused by insufficient validation of user-supplied input in API requests. An authenticated, remote attacker with low privileges can exploit this by sending crafted HTTP requests to the affected API endpoints. A successful exploit allows the attacker to retrieve data from various database tables via blind SQL injection techniques. Cisco has released software updates to address this issue; there are no known workarounds.

Affected products

Cisco Prime Infrastructure up to 3.10.6 Security Update 02
Cisco Evolved Programmable Network Manager (EPNM) up to 8.0.1, 8.1.1
