Security News > 2021 > July > Cisco Patches High Severity Vulnerabilities in BPA, WSA
Cisco this week released patches for high-severity vulnerabilities in Business Process Automation and Web Security Appliance that expose users to privilege escalation attacks.
An authenticated, remote attacker able to exploit these could elevate their privileges to administrator, Cisco warned in an advisory.
Cisco BPA versions earlier than release 3.1 are affected.
There are no workarounds to mitigate these vulnerabilities and users are advised to update to a patched version as soon as possible.
Cisco says it is not aware of any of these vulnerabilities being exploited in the wild.
Information on all of these vulnerabilities is available on Cisco's security portal.
