Summary

  o A vulnerability in the web-based management interface of the Cisco Data
    Center Analytics Framework application could allow an unauthenticated,
    remote attacker to conduct a reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) attack
    against a user of the interface of an affected system.

    The vulnerability is due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input
    by the web-based management interface of the affected software. An attacker
    could exploit this vulnerability by persuading a user of the interface to
    click a malicious link. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to
    execute arbitrary script code in the context of the interface or allow the
    attacker to access sensitive, browser-based information on the affected
    system.

    Cisco has released software updates that address this vulnerability. There
    are no workarounds that address this vulnerability.
