Kwetsbaarheden verholpen in Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN Controller en Manager

Published May 15, 2026 · Updated May 15, 2026 · Revision 2 · nl

Summary

Cisco heeft een kwetsbaarheden verholpen in de Catalyst SD-WAN Controller en Manager producten.

Details

Interpretaties
Cisco heeft 4 kwetsbaarheden verholpen in de Catalyst SD-WAN Controller en Manager producten. De kwetsbaarheden betreffen XXE-injectie, privilege-escalatie en authentication bypass.
De authentication bypass kwetsbaarheid bevindt zich in het peering authenticatiemechanisme, waardoor niet-geauthenticeerde externe aanvallers verhoogde rechten kunnen verkrijgen. Hierdoor kunnen zij netwerkconfiguraties manipuleren en mogelijk netwerkoperaties verstoren.
Met name SD-WAN controllers die poorten via publieke netwerken bereikbaar hebben lopen een verhoogd risico op misbruik.

Cisco meldt bekend te zijn met berichten dat de authentication bypass kwetsbaarheid beperkt en gericht is misbruikt. De verwachting van het NCSC is dat op korte termijn een toename in scan- en misbruikverkeer zal plaatsvinden.

Oplossingen
Cisco heeft updates uitgebracht om de kwetsbaarheid te verhelpen. Ook heeft Cisco Indicators of Compromise (IoC's) beschikbaar gesteld om eventueel misbruik te detecteren. Zie bijgevoegde referenties voor meer informatie.

Dreigingsinformatie
Customers are encouraged to audit the auth.log file, located at /var/log/auth.log, for entries that are related to Accepted publickey for vmanage-admin from unknown or unauthorized IP addresses, as shown in the following example:

`2026-02-10T22:51:36+00:00 vm sshd[804]: Accepted publickey for vmanage-admin from port [REDACTED PORT] ssh2: RSA SHA256:[REDACTED KEY]`

Customers must check the IP address in the auth.log log file against the configured System IPs that are listed in the Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN Manager web UI in the WebUI > Devices > System IP column.
