Cisco has patched a critical bug that could give attackers unauthorised access to Firepower Management Centre, the device that controls all of its security products.

Cisco's FMC is an administrative controller for the company's network security products, giving administrators access to firewalls, application controllers, intrusion prevention, URL filtering, and malware protection systems.

Cisco advises customers to check these using the product's administrative interface.

One of these, a bug in its Webex Meetings Suite and Meetings Online websites, enables attackers using an iOS or Android device to join a password-protected meeting without authenticating.

The vulnerability exposes unintended meeting information in the mobile app that enables the attacker to access a known meeting ID or URL from their web browser, which then launches the mobile Webex application.
