|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CVE-2026-20147 | A vulnerability in Cisco ISE and Cisco ISE-PIC could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the underlying operating system of A vulnerability in Cisco ISE and Cisco ISE-PIC could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the underlying operating system of an affected device. To exploit this vulnerability, the attacker must have valid administrative credentials. This vulnerability is due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted HTTP request to an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to obtain user-level access to the underlying operating system and then elevate privileges to root. In single-node ISE deployments, successful exploitation of this vulnerability could cause the affected ISE node to become unavailable, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition. In that condition, endpoints that have not already authenticated would be unable to access the network until the node is restored. NVD description · AI analysis pending | 9.9 | 12% |

To exploit this vulnerability, the attacker must have at least Read Only Admin credentials. This vulnerability is due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted HTTP request to an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to obtain user-level access to the underlying operating system and then elevate privileges to root. In single-node ISE deployments, successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities could cause the affected ISE node to become unavailable, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition.

This vulnerability existed because of improper certificate validation. Prior to this vulnerability being addressed, an attacker could have exploited this vulnerability by connecting to a service endpoint and supplying a crafted token. A successful exploit could have allowed the attacker to gain unauthorized access to legitimate Cisco Webex services. NVD description · AI analysis pending | 9.8 | <1% | — | — |

Cisco fixed four critical flaws in Identity Services and Webex that could allow code execution and user impersonation.
Cisco has addressed four critical vulnerabilities affecting its Identity Services and Webex platforms. The flaws could allow attackers to execute arbitrary code and impersonate any user within the affected services. The issues pose serious security risks, prompting urgent updates to protect systems and prevent potential exploitation.
Below are the descriptions of the flaws:
- CVE-2026-20184 (CVSS 9.8): An improper certificate validation issue in Webex SSO integration with Control Hub could allow an unauthenticated remote attacker to impersonate any user and gain unauthorized access to Webex services.
- CVE-2026-20147 (CVSS 9.9): An input validation flaw in Identity Services Engine (ISE) and ISE-PIC could let an authenticated attacker with admin credentials execute remote code via crafted HTTP requests.
- CVE-2026-20180 / CVE-2026-20186 (CVSS 9.9): Input validation issues in ISE could allow attackers with read-only admin access to execute arbitrary OS commands using crafted HTTP requests.
Cisco says it has no evidence of public disclosure or active exploitation of these vulnerabilities.
