What is CVE-2019-12636?

CVE-2019-12636 is a high-severity vulnerability in Cisco Small Business 250 Series Smart Switches Software, published on 16 Oct 2019. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.

Official description

A vulnerability in the web-based management interface of Cisco Small Business Smart and Managed Switches could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to conduct a cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attack on an affected system. The vulnerability is due to insufficient CSRF protections for the web-based management interface on an affected device. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by persuading a user of the interface to follow a malicious link. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to perform arbitrary actions with the privilege level of the targeted user. If the user has administrative privileges, the attacker could alter the configuration, execute commands, or cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on an affected device.
