CWE ID Description
CWE-89 The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data.

Can you explain this vulnerability to me?

This vulnerability exists in the web-based management interface of Cisco Secure FMC Software. It allows an authenticated remote attacker to perform SQL injection attacks due to inadequate validation of user-supplied input.

By sending specially crafted requests to the affected system, an attacker with valid user credentials could exploit this flaw.

Successful exploitation could give the attacker full access to the database and the ability to read certain files on the underlying operating system.


How can this vulnerability impact me? :

If exploited, this vulnerability could allow an attacker to gain full access to the database of the affected system.

The attacker could also read certain files on the underlying operating system, potentially exposing sensitive information.

Since the attacker needs valid user credentials, the risk is higher if credential compromise or weak authentication exists.
