Multiple vulnerabilities in Cisco Jabber for Windows, Jabber for MacOS, and Jabber for mobile platforms could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary programs on the underlying operating system (OS) with elevated privileges or gain access to sensitive information. For more information about these vulnerabilities, see the Details section of this advisory.

A vulnerability in the loading mechanism of specific dynamic link libraries in Cisco Jabber for Windows could allow an authenticated, local attacker to perform a DLL preloading attack. To exploit this vulnerability, the attacker would need to have valid credentials on the Windows system. The vulnerability is due to insufficient validation of the resources loaded by the application at run time. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by crafting a malicious DLL file and placing it in a specific location on the targeted system. The malicious DLL file would execute when the Jabber application launches. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target machine with the privileges of another user's account.

Directory traversal vulnerability in the Send Screen Capture implementation in Cisco Jabber 9.2(.1) and earlier on Windows allows remote attackers to upload arbitrary types of files, and consequently execute arbitrary code, via modified packets, aka Bug ID CSCug48056.

Cisco Jabber on Windows does not verify X.509 certificates from SSL servers, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof servers and modify the client-server data stream via a crafted certificate, aka Bug ID CSCug30280.

The Precision Video Engine component in Cisco Jabber for Windows and Cisco Virtualization Experience Media Engine allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (process crash and call disconnection) via crafted RTP packets, aka Bug IDs CSCuh60706 and CSCue21117.
