Cisco DNA Center Unintended Proxy Via SWIM Import Interface Vulnerability
A vulnerability in the Software Image Management feature of Cisco DNA Center could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to access to internal services without additional authentication.

An exploit could allow the attacker to bypass any firewall or other protections to access unauthorized internal services. DNAC versions prior to 1.2.5 are affected.
Weakness Type
What is a Confused Deputy Vulnerability?
The product receives a request, message, or directive from an upstream component, but the product does not sufficiently preserve the original source of the request before forwarding the request to an external actor that is outside of the product's control sphere. This causes the product to appear to be the source of the request, leading it to act as a proxy or other intermediary between the upstream component and the external actor.
CVE-2019-1841 has been classified to as a Confused Deputy vulnerability or weakness.
