The vulnerability is due to improper input validation of log file content stored on the affected device. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by modifying a log file with malicious code and getting a user to view the modified log file. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary script code in the context of the affected interface or to access sensitive, browser-based information.","severity":{"version":"3.1","score":5.4,"vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","level":"medium","assessor":"cna","from":"cve"},"epss":{"day":"2026-11-10","score":0.00622,"percentile":0.50139,"model":"v2026.06.15"},"facts":{"in_kev":false,"known_exploited":false,"public_exploit":false,"fix_available":false},"cwes":["CWE-79"],"published":"2021-01-13T21:20:38Z","modified":"2026-06-17T03:31:00Z","products":[{"vendor":"cisco","product":"cisco enterprise nfv infrastructure software"},{"vendor":"cisco","product":"enterprise_nfv_infrastructure_software"}],"references":[{"url":"https://tools.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/cisco-sa-nfvis-xss-smsz5Vhb","tags":["vendor-advisory","x_refsource_CISCO","x_transferred","Vendor Advisory"]},{"url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2021-1127"},{"url":"https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-4r7v-vq9j-hv62"}],"sources":{"cve":[{"id":"CVE-2021-1127","title":"Cisco Enterprise NFV Infrastructure Software Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability","description":"A vulnerability in the web-based management interface of Cisco Enterprise NFV Infrastructure Software (NFVIS) could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to conduct a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack against a user of the web-based management interface.
