Cisco Firepower Management Center Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability

A vulnerability in the web framework of Cisco Firepower Management Center could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to conduct a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack against a user of the web interface.

The vulnerability exists because the affected software fails to perform sufficient validation and sanitization of user-supplied input when the software processes crafted URLs. An authenticated, remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by persuading a user to follow a malicious link. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary script code in the context of the affected site and allow the attacker to access sensitive browser-based information.

There are no workarounds that address this vulnerability.
