An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted serialized Java object to the web-based management interface of an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code on the device and elevate privileges to root.\r\nNote: If the FMC management interface does not have public internet access, the attack surface that is associated with this vulnerability is reduced."}],"references":[{"url":"https://sec.cloudapps.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/cisco-sa-fmc-rce-NKhnULJh","name":"cisco-sa-fmc-rce-NKhnULJh"}],"exploits":[{"lang":"en","value":"In March 2026, the Cisco Product Security Incident Response Team (PSIRT) became aware of attempted exploitation of this vulnerability.
