These vulnerabilities are due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input by the web-based management interface of the affected software. An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by injecting malicious code into the web-based management interface and persuading a user to click a malicious link. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary script code in the context of the affected interface or access sensitive, browser-based information. An attacker needs valid administrator credentials to inject the malicious script code.","severity":{"version":"3.1","score":4.8,"vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","level":"medium","assessor":"cna","from":"cve"},"epss":{"day":"2026-11-11","score":0.00721,"percentile":0.54401,"model":"v2026.06.15"},"facts":{"in_kev":false,"known_exploited":false,"public_exploit":false,"fix_available":false},"cwes":["CWE-79"],"published":"2021-05-22T06:40:14Z","modified":"2026-06-17T03:31:19Z","products":[{"vendor":"cisco","product":"cisco unified contact center express"},{"vendor":"cisco","product":"finesse"}],"references":[{"url":"https://tools.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/cisco-sa-finesse-strd-xss-bUKqffFW","tags":["vendor-advisory","x_refsource_CISCO","x_transferred","Vendor Advisory"]},{"url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2021-1254"},{"url":"https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-h767-w58v-w95j"}],"sources":{"cve":[{"id":"CVE-2021-1254","title":"Cisco Finesse Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerabilities","description":"Multiple vulnerabilities in the web-based management interface of Cisco Finesse could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to conduct a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack against a user of the interface.
