Cisco Secure Access Control Server (ACS) provides a centralized
identity networking solution and simplified user management experience
across all Cisco devices and security management applications.
A vulnerability has been identified in the Cisco Secure ACS session
management architecture which could be exploited by an attacker to
obtain full administrative access to the web interface and thus all
managed assets (routers, switches, 802.1x authenticated networks,
etc).
By default, the Cisco Secure ACS web administration login page runs on
TCP port 2002. Upon successful authentication, the client is then
redirected to a dynamicand unique HTTP server port between 1024 and
65535. Once authenticated, ACS relies solely upon the port and the
client IP address to validate the session.
So an attacker might overtake the session - with all consequences.
Cisco is investigating on this topic and will publish a patch, if necessary.
