The vulnerability is due to improper bounds checking by the import-config process. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending malicious packets to an affected device. When the packets are processed, an exploitable buffer overflow condition may occur. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to implement arbitrary code on the affected device with elevated privileges.","severity":{"version":"3.0","score":7.2,"vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","level":"high","assessor":"cna","from":"cve"},"epss":{"day":"2026-11-08","score":0.03293,"percentile":0.88579,"model":"v2026.06.15"},"facts":{"in_kev":false,"known_exploited":false,"public_exploit":false,"fix_available":false},"cwes":["CWE-119"],"published":"2019-08-21T18:15:13Z","modified":"2026-06-17T02:29:29Z","products":[{"vendor":"cisco","product":"cisco unified computing system (management software)"},{"vendor":"cisco","product":"integrated_management_controller_supervisor"},{"vendor":"cisco","product":"unified_computing_system"}],"references":[{"url":"https://tools.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/cisco-sa-20190821-imc-bo","tags":["vendor-advisory","x_refsource_CISCO","x_transferred","Vendor Advisory"]},{"url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2019-1871"},{"url":"https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-cwvm-xp47-2xwf"}],"sources":{"cve":[{"id":"CVE-2019-1871","title":"Cisco Integrated Management Controller Buffer Overflow Vulnerability","description":"A vulnerability in the Import Cisco IMC configuration utility of Cisco Integrated Management Controller (IMC) could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition and implement arbitrary commands with root privileges on an affected device.
