CVE-2023-20258Network attack vector

Authenticated OS command execution via Java deserialization

Published Jan 17, 2024 · Updated Jun 2, 2025

Remote code execution in Cisco Prime Infrastructure allows remote authenticated users to execute OS commands through its web management interface. The application deserializes Java objects embedded in an uploaded document without safely rejecting attacker-controlled object data. Exploitation requires privileges sufficient to change application configuration and grants command execution on the underlying operating system.
