CVE-2013-5486

83
FAUCET Score

CVE-2013-5486 is a critical directory traversal vulnerability affecting Cisco Prime Data Center Network Manager (DCNM) before version 6.2(1). This flaw allows unauthenticated remote attackers to write arbitrary files via the chartid parameter in processImageSave.jsp, which can be leveraged for arbitrary command execution through JBoss autodeploy. With a CVSS score of 10.0 and a FAUCET Risk Score of 100/100, this vulnerability presents an extremely severe risk due to its network-based attack vector, low complexity, and complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. While not listed on CISA KEV, exploit code is publicly available through Metasploit, indicating a high potential for exploitation, despite limited community discussion or media coverage.
