This vulnerability is due to a race condition in the signature verification process for shared library files that are loaded on an affected device. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a series of crafted interprocess communication (IPC) messages to the AnyConnect process. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code on the affected device with root privileges. To exploit this vulnerability, the attacker must have a valid account on the system.", "severity": [], "affected": [], "references": [ { "type": "ADVISORY", "url": "https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2021-34788" }, { "type": "WEB", "url": "https://tools.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/cisco-sa-anyconnect-lib-hija-cAFB7x4q" } ], "database_specific": { "cwe_ids": [ "CWE-367" ], "severity": "HIGH", "github_reviewed": false, "github_reviewed_at": null, "nvd_published_at": "2021-10-06T20:15:00Z" } }
