Cisco Secure Email Gateway SQL Injection Vulnerability

Published Sep 14, 2026 · Updated Sep 18, 2026 · Assigned by cisco

Vendor: Cisco Product: Cisco Secure Email Category: Network devices

Description

A vulnerability in the email parsing of Cisco AsyncOS Software for Cisco Secure Email Gateway could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands with root privileges on the underlying operating system.

This vulnerability is due to insufficient validation in the email parsing logic. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted email message that contains malicious SQL statements through an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary SQL statements, leading to command execution with root privileges on the underlying operating system.
