The fabric-interconnect component in Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS) does not encrypt KVM virtual-media data, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to obtain sensitive information by sniffing the network or modify this traffic by inserting packets into the client-server data stream, aka Bug ID CSCtr72964.
Weaknesses in this category are related to the design and implementation of data confidentiality and integrity. Frequently these deal with the use of encoding techniques, encryption libraries, and hashing algorithms. The weaknesses in this category could lead to a degradation of the quality data if they are not addressed.
