An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by using the account to log in to an affected system. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to log in to the affected system and access sensitive data as the low-privileged user.&nbsp;\r\nNote:&nbsp;If the FMC management interface does not have public internet access, the attack surface that is associated with this vulnerability is reduced.&nbsp;&nbsp;\r\nCisco has assigned this security advisory a Security Impact Rating (SIR) of High rather than Medium as the score indicates.
