A vulnerability in the web interface for Cisco Prime Collaboration Provisioning could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to bypass authentication and perform command injection with root privileges. The vulnerability is due to missing security constraints in certain HTTP request methods, which could allow access to files via the web interface.
