Summary
=======
A vulnerability in the authentication functionality of the web-based service portal of Cisco Elastic Services Controller Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to bypass authentication and execute arbitrary actions with administrator privileges on an affected system.
The vulnerability is due to improper security restrictions that are imposed by the web-based service portal of the affected software.
