cisco-sa-ise-multisql-inject-JnHK54Rq: Cisco Identity Services Engine SQL and HQL Injection Vulnerabilities

Published Sep 16, 2026
·
Updated

Multiple vulnerabilities in Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) and Cisco ISE Passive Identity Connector (ISE-PIC) could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to conduct SQL or HQL injection attacks on an affected device.These vulnerabilities are due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input to the affected APIs before it is used to build database queries. An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by sending a crafted request to an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary SQL or HQL queries against the underlying database, which could allow the attacker to view or modify data that they are not authorized to access. To exploit these vulnerabilities, the attacker must have valid administrative credentials. Cisco has released software updates that address these vulnerabilities. There are no workarounds that address these vulnerabilities.This advisory is available at the following link:https://sec.cloudapps.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/cisco-sa-ise-multisql-inject-JnHK54RqThis advisory is part of a group of advisories. For a complete list of the advisories and links to them, see Cisco Advance Notification for Publication of September 16, 2026, Security Advisories.

Frequently Asked Questions

1

Who can exploit these vulnerabilities?

An attacker must be able to reach the affected device remotely and possess valid administrative credentials. The provided information does not indicate that unauthenticated users can exploit them.

2

What could an attacker do after successful exploitation?

A successful attack can execute arbitrary SQL or HQL queries against the underlying database. This may let the attacker view or modify data they are not authorized to access.

3

What mitigation is available if updates cannot be installed immediately?

No workaround is available. Cisco has released software updates that address the vulnerabilities.
