Cisco Security Advisory: Cisco Secure Access Control Server Remote Command 
Execution Vulnerability

Advisory ID: cisco-sa-20130828-acs

Revision 1.0

For Public Release 2013 August 28 16:00  UTC (GMT)

+----------------------------------------------------------------------

Summary
=======

A vulnerability in the EAP-FAST authentication module of Cisco Secure Access 
Control Server (ACS) versions 4.0 through 4.2.1.15 could allow an 
unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the Cisco 
Secure ACS server. This vulnerability is only present when Cisco Secure ACS is 
configured as a RADIUS server.

The vulnerability is due to improper parsing of user identities used for 
EAP-FAST authentication. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by 
sending crafted EAP-FAST packets to an affected device. An exploit could allow 
the attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the Cisco Secure ACS server and 
take full control of the affected server.

There are no workarounds for this vulnerability.

Cisco has released free software updates that address this vulnerability. This 
advisory is available at the following link:
