Successful exploitation could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code on the user\u2019s system.\r\n\r\nThe Cisco WebEx players are applications that are used to play back WebEx meeting recordings that have been recorded by an online meeting attendee. The player can be installed automatically when a user accesses a recording file that is hosted on a WebEx server.\r\n\r\nCisco has updated affected versions of Cisco WebEx Business Suite meeting sites, Cisco WebEx Meetings sites, Cisco WebEx Meetings Server, and the Cisco WebEx ARF Player to address this vulnerability. There are no workarounds that address this vulnerability.\r\n\r\n  This advisory is available at the following link:\r\nhttps://sec.cloudapps.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/cisco-sa-20180502-war [\"https://sec.cloudapps.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/cisco-sa-20180502-war\"]",

The following client builds of Cisco WebEx Business Suite (WBS31 and WBS32), Cisco WebEx Meetings, and Cisco WebEx Meetings Server are affected by the vulnerability described in this advisory:\r\n\r\nCisco WebEx Business Suite (WBS31) client builds prior to T31.23.4\r\nCisco WebEx Business Suite (WBS32) client builds prior to T32.12\r\nCisco WebEx Meetings with client builds prior to T32.12\r\nCisco WebEx Meeting Server builds prior to 3.0 Patch 1\r\n  To determine whether a Cisco WebEx meeting site is running an affected version of the WebEx client build, users can log in to their Cisco WebEx meeting site and go to Support \u003e Downloads. The version of the WebEx client build will be displayed on the right side of the page under About Meeting Center. See the Fixed Software [\"#fixed\"] section of this advisory for details.\r\n\r\nAlternatively, version information for the Cisco WebEx meeting client can be accessed directly within the Cisco WebEx meeting client. Version information for the Cisco WebEx meeting client on Windows and Linux platforms can be viewed by choosing Help \u003e About Cisco WebEx Meeting Center. Version information for the Cisco WebEx meeting client on Mac platforms can be viewed by choosing Meeting Center \u003e About Cisco WebEx Meeting Center.\r\n\r\nCisco WebEx software updates are cumulative in client builds. For example, if client build 30.32.16 is fixed, build 30.32.17 will contain updated software. Cisco WebEx site administrators have access to secondary version nomenclature, for example, T30 SP32 EP 16, which shows that the server is running client build 30.32.16.\r\n\r\nNote: Customers who do not receive automatic software updates may be running versions of Cisco WebEx that have reached end of software maintenance and should contact customer support.",

Customers may only install and expect support for software versions and feature sets for which they have purchased a license.

In most cases this will be a maintenance upgrade to software that was previously purchased. Free security software updates do not entitle customers to a new software license, additional software feature sets, or major revision upgrades.\r\n\r\nWhen considering software upgrades, customers are advised to regularly consult the advisories for Cisco products, which are available from the Cisco Security Advisories and Alerts page [\"https://www.cisco.com/go/psirt\"], to determine exposure and a complete upgrade solution.\r\n\r\nIn all cases, customers should ensure that the devices to be upgraded contain sufficient memory and confirm that current hardware and software configurations will continue to be supported properly by the new release. If the information is not clear, customers are advised to contact the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) or their contracted maintenance providers.\r\n\r\nCustomers Without Service Contracts\r\n\r\nCustomers who purchase directly from Cisco but do not hold a Cisco service contract and customers who make purchases through third-party vendors but are unsuccessful in obtaining fixed software through their point of sale should obtain upgrades by contacting the Cisco TAC:\r\nhttps://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/web/tsd-cisco-worldwide-contacts.html [\"https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/web/tsd-cisco-worldwide-contacts.html\"]\r\n\r\nCustomers should have the product serial number available and be prepared to provide the URL of this advisory as evidence of entitlement to a free upgrade.\r\n\r\nFixed Releases\r\n\r\nThe following client builds of Cisco WebEx Business Suite (WBS31 and WBS32), Cisco WebEx Meetings, and Cisco WebEx Meetings Server address the vulnerability described in this advisory:\r\n\r\nCisco WebEx Business Suite (WBS31) client builds T31.23.4 and later\r\nCisco WebEx Business Suite (WBS32) client builds T32.12 and later\r\nCisco WebEx Meetings with client builds T32.12 and later\r\nCisco WebEx Meeting Server builds 3.0 Patch 1 and later\r\n  To determine whether a Cisco WebEx meeting site is running an affected version of a WebEx client build, users can log in to their Cisco WebEx meeting site and go to Support \u003e Downloads. The version of the WebEx client build will be displayed on the right side of the page under About Meeting Center. Cisco WebEx software updates are cumulative in client builds. For example, if client build 30.32.16 is fixed, build 30.32.17 will contain updated software.\r\n\r\nThe vulnerability disclosed in this advisory affects the Cisco WebEx ARF Player. The Microsoft Windows, Apple Mac OS X, and Linux versions of the player are all affected by the vulnerability described in this advisory. If the Cisco WebEx ARF Player was automatically installed, it will be automatically upgraded to the latest, non-vulnerable version when users access a recording file that is hosted on a WebEx meeting site. If the Cisco WebEx ARF Player was manually installed, users will need to manually install a new version of the player after downloading the latest version from https://www.webex.com/play-webex-recording.html [\"https://www.webex.com/play-webex-recording.html\"].\r\n\r\nUsers can manually verify the installed version of the Cisco WebEx ARF Player to determine whether they are affected by this vulnerability.\r\n\r\nNote: Users whose WebEx Business Suites are on lockdown will need to contact WebEx Support to apply the appropriate patch to their WebEx site.",
