Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
The Cisco Unified IP Conference Station 7935 3.2(15) and earlier, and Station 7936 3.3(12) and earlier does not properly handle administrator HTTP sessions, which allows remote attackers to bypass authentication controls via a direct URL request to the administrative HTTP interface for a limited time

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

How this class of weakness works · CWE-287

The mechanism that verifies who a user is can be side-stepped or fooled, letting an attacker act as someone they're not. Everything built on top of that identity then becomes untrustworthy. Fixing it means hardening the full authentication flow, including edge cases, tokens, and secondary paths.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

Upgrade to Cisco Unified IP Conference Station 7935 firmware version greater than 3.2(15) and 7936 firmware version greater than 3.3(12) - consult the Cisco security advisory for exact fixed versions

  1. 1. Identify the current firmware version of the Cisco Unified IP Conference Station 7935 or 7936 by accessing the device's web interface or administrative console.
  2. 2. Access the Cisco security advisory at http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20070221-phone.shtml to obtain the specific fixed firmware version for your device model.
  3. 3. Download the patched firmware version from the Cisco software download center (software.cisco.com) - you may need a valid service contract.
  4. 4. Access the device's administration web interface and navigate to the firmware upgrade section.
  5. 5. Upload and apply the patched firmware, following Cisco's upgrade procedures documented in the device administration guide.
  6. 6. After upgrade, verify the new firmware version and confirm the administrative HTTP session handling has been patched.
  7. 7. Test that authentication is properly enforced on the administrative HTTP interface.
Caveat These are legacy devices from 2007; ensure compatibility with your current Cisco Unified Communications environment before upgrading
