CVE-2016-1404


TITLE

Cisco UCS Invicta Appliance and Invicta Operates on a scaling system Cisco UCS Invicta Vulnerabilities that can break cryptographic protection mechanisms

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2016-002956

DESCRIPTION

Cisco UCS Invicta 4.3, 4.5, and 5.0.1 on Invicta appliances and Invicta Scaling System uses the same hardcoded GnuPG encryption key across different customers' installations, which allows remote attackers to defeat cryptographic protection mechanisms by sniffing network traffic to an Autosupport server and leveraging knowledge of this key from another installation, aka Bug ID CSCur85504. Cisco UCS Invicta Software is prone to an information-disclosure vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this issue to perform man-in-the-middle attacks and obtain sensitive information. Successful exploits will lead to other attacks. This issue is being tracked by Cisco Bug ID CSCur85504
