Hacking Hollywood: Cisco’s IOS XE Software Web UI’s Real-Life Blockbuster

When life imitates art: two vulnerabilities turn Cisco’s IOS XE Software Web UI into the set of a Hollywood blockbuster. With the ability to grant an unauthenticated remote actor full control, it’s a high-stakes game of digital hide-and-seek.

Hot Take:

Well, folks, it seems like the script for a new hacking-themed blockbuster movie is being written in real life. The villains this time? Two nasty vulnerabilities affecting Cisco’s Internetworking Operating System (IOS) XE Software Web User Interface. These baddies are stealthy, allowing an unauthenticated remote actor to sneak in and take control of an affected system. It's like a digital "Home Alone," only this time the McCallisters are CISA and Cisco, and they're not forgetting to lock the front door.
