Technical details

Multiple vulnerabilities in Cisco RoomOS are categorized under CWE-20 (Improper Input Validation). The root cause is a failure of the software to properly validate input data, which can be exploited by a remote, unauthenticated attacker via the network. A successful exploit allows the attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) on the affected device. These vulnerabilities were identified during internal testing, including the use of AI models for security review. Cisco has released RoomOS 11.32.6.0 (on-premises), 11.39.1.1 (cloud), and 26.5.2.2 to address these issues.
