Summary
A vulnerability in a critical API for Cisco Secure FMC Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to download sensitive files and use unbounded disk space. This vulnerability exists because a critical API lacks authentication. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by repeatedly invoking the API. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to download sensitive files that should be restricted and consume disk space so the device could become unresponsive, causing a DoS condition.
