Multiple privilege escalation vulnerabilities (CVE-2022-20775 and CVE-2022-20818, CVSS 7.8 HIGH) in Cisco SD-WAN Software allow an authenticated local attacker to execute arbitrary commands as root via malicious CLI commands due to improper access controls. Affected versions include Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN Manager before 20.6.3 and 20.7.x before 20.7.2, and Cisco SD-WAN vBond Orchestrator, vManage, vSmart Controller, and SD-WAN software before version 20.9. Cisco has released fixed versions 20.6.3, 20.7.2, and 20.9, and there are no available workarounds.
