CVE-2019-1675: Cisco Aironet Active Sensor

High severity, CVSS 7.5. EPSS: 2.6% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

A vulnerability in the default configuration of the Cisco Aironet Active Sensor could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to restart the sensor. The vulnerability is due to a default local account with a static password. The account has privileges only to reboot the device. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by guessing the account name and password to access the CLI. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to reboot the device repeatedly, creating a denial of service (DoS) condition. It is not possible to change the configuration or view sensitive data with this account. Versions prior to DNAC1.2.8 are affected.

Affected products

• Cisco Aironet Active Sensor: affected versions not specified
• Cisco Digital Network Architecture Center: before 1.2.8 (fixed in 1.2.8)
