A vulnerability in Cisco Meeting Server (CMS) could allow an unauthenticated, adjacent attacker to access services running on internal device interfaces of an affected system. The vulnerability is due to incorrect default configuration of the device, which can expose internal interfaces and ports on the external interface of the system. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to gain unauthenticated access to configuration and database files and sensitive meeting information on an affected system. This vulnerability affects Cisco Meeting Server (CMS) 2000 Platforms that are running a CMS Software release prior to Release 2.2.13 or Release 2.3.4. Cisco Bug IDs: CSCvg76471.
The product initializes or sets a resource with a default that is intended to be changed by the administrator, but the default is not secure.
| Name | Vendor | Start Version | End Version |

Developers often choose default values that leave the product as open and easy to use as possible out-of-the-box, under the assumption that the administrator can (or should) change the default value. However, this ease-of-use comes at a cost when the default is insecure and the administrator does not change it.
