An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-20286 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Cisco Identity Services Engine. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-20286/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-20286/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-20286","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-20286/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-20286","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-mj8j-c9rh-x2c6"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read","privilege_escalation","data_modify","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Cisco Identity Services Engine","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can use shared static credentials from cloud deployments to access sensitive data, modify configurations, or disrupt services in Cisco ISE.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"hardcoded_credentials"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"cisco","cpe":[{"product":"identity_services_engine","vendor":"cisco"}],"cvss":{"score":9.9,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-259","name":"Use of Hard-coded Password"}],"description":"A vulnerability in Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) cloud deployments of Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to access sensitive data, execute limited administrative operations, modify system configurations, or disrupt services within the impacted systems.\r\n\r\nThis vulnerability exists because credentials are improperly generated when Cisco ISE is being deployed on cloud platforms, resulting in different Cisco ISE deployments sharing the same credentials. These credentials are shared across multiple Cisco ISE deployments as long as the software release and cloud platform are the same. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by extracting the user credentials from Cisco ISE that is deployed in the cloud and then using them to access Cisco ISE that is deployed in other cloud environments through unsecured ports. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to access sensitive data, execute limited administrative operations, modify system configurations, or disrupt services within the impacted systems.\r\nNote: If the Primary Administration node is deployed in the cloud, then Cisco ISE is affected by this vulnerability. If the Primary Administration node is on-premises, then it is not affected.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"ISE on AWS Static Credential","id":"CVE-2025-20286","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"cisco:identity_services_engine","products":["cisco:identity_services_engine"],"type":"hardcoded_credentials","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Cisco Evolved Programmable Network Manager Arbitrary File Upload Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-20287"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cisco Identity Services Engine IP Filter Access Restriction for Admin Access Configuration Bypass Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-20285"},"products":["Cisco Identity Services Engine Software"],"published":"2025-06-04","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Cisco Identity Services Engine Incorrect Use of Privileged APIs","id":"CVE-2026-76460","kev_date_added":"2026-09-16","published":"2026-09-16"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Cisco Identity Services Engine Injection","id":"CVE-2025-20337","kev_date_added":"2025-07-28","published":"2025-07-16"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Cisco Identity Services Engine Injection","id":"CVE-2025-20281","kev_date_added":"2025-07-28","published":"2025-06-25"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Cisco Identity Services Engine Hardening Release - Improper Neutralization Vulnerabilities","id":"CVE-2026-20130","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-09-16"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Cisco Identity Services Engine Hardening Release - Access Control Vulnerabilities","id":"CVE-2026-20192","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-09-16"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Cisco ISE API Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-20282","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-06-25"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-3290","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-09-21"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-06-05","vendors":["Cisco"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can use shared static credentials from cloud deployments to access sensitive data, modify configurations, or disrupt services in Cisco ISE.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-20286/"}
