The CLI in Cisco Prime Collaboration 9.0 and 11.0 allows local users to execute arbitrary OS commands as root by leveraging administrator privileges, aka Bug ID CSCux69286.
The product constructs all or part of an OS command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended OS command when it is sent to a downstream component.
