A vulnerability in the CLI of Cisco SD-WAN Software could allow an authenticated, local attacker to create or overwrite arbitrary files on an affected device, which could result in a denial of service (DoS) condition. The vulnerability is due to insufficient input validation for specific commands. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by including crafted arguments to those specific commands. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to create or overwrite arbitrary files on the affected device, which could result in a DoS condition.Cisco has released software updates that address this vulnerability. There are no workarounds that address this vulnerability.
This vulnerability carries a HIGH severity rating with a CVSS v3.1 score of 8.4, requiring local system access to exploit with relatively low complexity without requiring user interaction requiring only low-level privileges . The vulnerability impacts integrity (unauthorized modifications), and availability (service disruption) for affected systems. Impacting 1 product from cisco organizations running these solutions should prioritize assessment and patching.
Reported in 2024, this vulnerability emerged during an era marked by increased sophistication in supply chain attacks, cloud infrastructure vulnerabilities, and software-as-a-service (SaaS) security challenges. Security practices during this period emphasized zero-trust architectures, container security, and API protection.

SecUtils normalizes and enriches National Vulnerability Database (NVD) records by standardizing vendor and product identifiers, aggregating vulnerability metadata from both NVD and MITRE sources, and providing structured context for security teams. For cisco's affected products, we extract Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) data, Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) classifications, CVSS severity metrics, and reference data to enable rapid vulnerability prioritization and asset correlation. This record contains no exploit code, proof-of-concept instructions, or attack methodologies—only defensive intelligence necessary for patch management, risk assessment, and security operations.
