Multiple vulnerabilities in the web-based management interface of Cisco Unified Communications Manager IM & Presence Service could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to conduct SQL injection attacks on an affected system. These vulnerabilities are due to improper validation of user-submitted parameters. An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by authenticating to the application and sending malicious requests to an affected system. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to obtain data or modify data that is stored in the underlying database.
The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data.
