A critical Cisco vulnerability exists in its administrative management tool for Cisco network security solutions.
The flaw exists in the web-based management interface of the Cisco Firepower Management Center, which is its platform for managing Cisco network security solutions, like firewalls or its advanced malware protection service.
"The Cisco Product Security Incident Response Team is not aware of any public announcements or malicious use of the vulnerability that is described in this advisory," Cisco said in its advisory released Wednesday.
Overall, Cisco released updates addressing 27 flaws on Wednesday, including the critical flaw, seven high-severity vulnerabilities and 19 medium-severity glitches.
Also earlier in January Cisco also patched three critical vulnerabilities in its Data Center Network Manager, for which a proof-of-concept exploit was later published.
