Exposures › CVE-2026-20131
Cisco FMC and SCC allow unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary Java code as root via deserialization of untrusted data.
This critical vulnerability enables remote code execution as root without authentication, directly threatening the integrity of Cisco-managed firewalls and cloud control systems. DIB organizations must immediately patch affected FMC and SCC deployments to prevent ransomware or supply-chain attacks that could compromise network security controls. Failure to patch exposes critical infrastructure to exploitation before a fix is available.

Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center (FMC) Software and Cisco Security Cloud Control (SCC) Firewall Management contain a deserialization of untrusted data vulnerability in the web-based management interface that could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary Java code as root on an affected device.
