| Rule Name: | Cisco IOS XE WLC Arbitrary File Upload Vulnerability (CVE-2025-20188) | |
| Severity: | ||
| CVE ID: | ||
| Rule Protection Details |
|---|
| Description: | A vulnerability in the Out-of-Band Access Point (AP) Image Download, the Clean Air Spectral Recording, and the client debug bundles features of Cisco IOS XE Software for Wireless LAN Controllers (WLCs) could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to upload arbitrary files to an affected system. This vulnerability is due to the presence of a hard-coded JSON Web Token (JWT) on an affected system. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending crafted HTTPS requests to the AP file upload interface. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to upload files, perform path traversal, and execute arbitrary commands with root privileges. | |
| Impact: | Attackers can upload viruses, Trojans, WebShell, other malicious scripts or pictures containing scripts to the server, and attackers can use these files for subsequent attacks. | |
| Affected OS: | Windows, Linux, Others | |
