Cisco ISE Security Woes: Double Trouble with XSS and Authorization Bypass Vulnerabilities!
Cisco unveils two vulnerabilities: CVE-2025-20331 and CVE-2025-20332. The first lets low-privileged attackers unleash stored XSS chaos; the second allows read-only admins to play unauthorized configuration tag. Thankfully, Cisco’s software updates are the superheroes we need.

Hot Take:
Ah, Cisco, always keeping us on our toes with vulnerabilities that are as independent as a teenager with a new driver’s license. One minute you’re worried about a stored XSS vulnerability, the next you’re dodging an authorization bypass like it’s a game of Whac-A-Mole. Who knew cybersecurity could be so thrilling?
Key Points:
- Cisco ISE suffers from two separate vulnerabilities: Stored XSS and Authorization Bypass.
- Both vulnerabilities require authenticated access to exploit, but no workarounds are available.
- Stored XSS vulnerability involves insufficient input validation; Authorization Bypass lacks server-side validation.
- Software updates have been released by Cisco to address both issues.
- Both vulnerabilities have a Security Impact Rating of Medium.
