Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, was found in Cisco NX-OS (Router Operating System) (version now known). Affected is some unknown processing of the component Image Signature Verification. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a signature verification vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-347. The product does not verify, or incorrectly verifies, the cryptographic signature for data. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

A vulnerability in the Image Signature Verification feature used in an NX-OS CLI command in Cisco Nexus 3000 Series and 9000 Series Switches could allow an authenticated, local attacker with administrator-level credentials to install a malicious software image on an affected device. The vulnerability exists because software digital signatures are not properly verified during CLI command execution. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to install an unsigned software image on an affected device. Note: If the device has not been patched for the vulnerability previously disclosed in the Cisco Security Advisory cisco-sa-20190306-nxos-sig-verif, a successful exploit could allow the attacker to boot a malicious software image.

The bug was discovered 05/15/2019. The weakness was published 05/15/2019 as cisco-sa-20190515-nxos-sisv as confirmed advisory (Website). The advisory is shared for download at tools.cisco.com.
