Summary
o A vulnerability in the Tool for Auto-Registered Phones Support (TAPS) of
Cisco Unified Communications Manager (UCM) and Cisco Unified Communications
Manager Session Management Edition (SME) could allow an unauthenticated,
remote attacker to conduct directory traversal attacks on an affected
device.
The vulnerability is due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input
to the TAPS interface of the affected device. An attacker could exploit
this vulnerability by sending a crafted request to the TAPS interface. A
successful exploit could allow the attacker to read arbitrary files in the
system.
Cisco has released software updates that address the vulnerability
described in this advisory. There are no workarounds that address this
vulnerability.

are known to be affected by this vulnerability.
Workarounds
o There are no workarounds that address this vulnerability.
Fixed Software
o Cisco has released free software updates that address the vulnerability
described in this advisory. Customers may only install and expect support
for software versions and feature sets for which they have purchased a
license. By installing, downloading, accessing, or otherwise using such
software upgrades, customers agree to follow the terms of the Cisco
software license: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/
end-user-license-agreement.html
Additionally, customers may only download software for which they have a
valid license, procured from Cisco directly, or through a Cisco authorized
reseller or partner. In most cases this will be a maintenance upgrade to
software that was previously purchased. Free security software updates do
not entitle customers to a new software license, additional software
feature sets, or major revision upgrades.
When considering software upgrades , customers are advised to regularly
consult the advisories for Cisco products, which are available from the
Cisco Security Advisories and Alerts page , to determine exposure and a
complete upgrade solution.
In all cases, customers should ensure that the devices to be upgraded
contain sufficient memory and confirm that current hardware and software
configurations will continue to be supported properly by the new release.
If the information is not clear, customers are advised to contact the Cisco
Technical Assistance Center (TAC) or their contracted maintenance
providers.
Customers Without Service Contracts
Customers who purchase directly from Cisco but do not hold a Cisco service
contract and customers who make purchases through third-party vendors but
are unsuccessful in obtaining fixed software through their point of sale
should obtain upgrades by contacting the Cisco TAC: https://www.cisco.com/c
/en/us/support/web/tsd-cisco-worldwide-contacts.html
Customers should have the product serial number available and be prepared
to provide the URL of this advisory as evidence of entitlement to a free
upgrade.

Customers are advised to upgrade to an appropriate fixed software release
as indicated in the following table:
