	<p>-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Cisco Security Advisory: Cisco Content Services Switch User Account
Vulnerability Revision 1.0 For Public Release 2001 April 04 08:00 (UTC -0700) Summary The Cisco Content Services (CSS) switch product, also known as Arrowpoint,
has a security vulnerability in a previous release that allows
non-privileged users to escalate their privilege level, permitting them
configuration ability on affected units. This vulnerability can only be
exercised from a valid user account. To remove the vulnerability, Cisco is offering free software upgrades to
revision 4.01B19s for all affected platforms. This defect is documented as
Cisco bug ID CSCdt32570. This advisory is available at
http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/arrowpoint-useraccnt-debug-pub.shtml. Affected Products The CSS switch is also known as the Arrowpoint product, and runs the Cisco
WebNS Software. Cisco CSS 11050, CSS 11150, and CSS 11800 hardware platforms are affected
by this vulnerability. No other Cisco products are affected by this
vulnerability. If the switch is running a version prior to 4.01B19s, then it is affected
and should be upgraded as soon as possible. You may type version at the
command line to find out software version number. Details A non-privileged user can issue a series of keystrokes to enter the debug
mode, and from that mode can gain administrative access. Impact This vulnerability allows a non-privileged user to become a super-user,
allowing unauthorized access to important files such as the configuration
files, and directory structure information. If access to the command line
interface is well protected and restricted, these vulnerabilities are
minimized. Cisco Bug ID CSCdt32570 describes this vulnerability. Software Versions and Fixes CSCdt32570 is resolved in version 4.01B19s of Cisco WebNS software. Non-privileged users can no longer enter debug mode. Obtaining Fixed Software Cisco is offering free software upgrades to eliminate this vulnerability
for all affected customers. Customers with contracts should obtain upgraded software through their
regular update channels. For most customers, this means that upgrades
should be obtained through the Software Center on Cisco's Worldwide Web
site at http://www.cisco.com. Specifically, this fix can be found at
http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/webns. Customers whose Cisco
products are provided or maintained through prior or existing agreement
with third-party support organizations such as Cisco Partners, authorized
resellers, or service providers should contact that support organization
for assistance with the upgrade, which should be free of charge. Customers without contracts should get their upgrades by contacting the
Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC). TAC contacts are as follows: * +1 800 553 2447 (toll-free from within North America)
   * +1 408 526 7209 (toll call from anywhere in the world)
   * e-mail: tac@cisco.com See http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/687/Directory/DirTAC.shtml for
additional TAC contact information, including instructions and e-mail
addresses for use in various languages. Give the URL of this notice as evidence of your entitlement to a free
upgrade. Free upgrades for non-contract customers must be requested through
the TAC. Please do not contact either "psirt@cisco.com" or
"security-alert@cisco.com" for software upgrades. Workarounds Access control lists can be applied to restrict access to the Cisco CSS
device, as well as additional firewall or access lists to restrict
connection to the management interface. Access control lists also affect
traffic to the Virtual interface of the Cisco CSS device, so must be
applied with care. For further details on configuring access lists, please
refer to the product documentation: http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/webscale/css/bsccfggd/profiles
.htm http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/webscale/css/advcfggd/sgacleql
.htm Additionally, the use of SSH to prevent snooping of the management traffic
to the device is encouraged. Telnet service can also be disabled. This is not a feasible option for many
customers in a co-location environment, but it is included in this section
for customers that may have the ability to implement this configuration. CS150(config)# telnet access disabled Exploitation and Public Announcements Cisco knows of no public announcements or discussion of this vulnerability
