Cisco Wide Area Application Services 5.3.5a

A vulnerability in Cisco Wide Area Application Services (WAAS) Software could allow an authenticated, local attacker to gain access to sensitive information on an affected device. The vulnerability is due to improper input validation and authorization of specific commands that a user can execute within the CLI. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by authenticating to an affected device and issuing a specific set of commands. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to read arbitrary files that they originally did not have permissions to access.

A vulnerability in the SSL session cache management of Cisco Wide Area Application Services (WAAS) could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition due to high consumption of disk space. The user would see a performance degradation. More Information: CSCva03095. Known Affected Releases: 5.3(5), 6.1(1), 6.2(1). Known Fixed Releases: 5.3(5g)1, 6.2(2.32).

cifs-ao in the CIFS optimization functionality on Cisco Wide Area Application Service (WAAS) and Virtual WAAS (vWAAS) devices 5.x before 5.3.5d and 5.4 and 5.5 before 5.5.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource consumption and device reload) via crafted network traffic, aka Bug ID CSCus85330.
