CVSS v3.1
Official Description
The Openfire server in Cisco Finesse Desktop 10.5(1) and 11.0(1) and Unified Contact Center Express 10.6(1) has a hardcoded account, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain access via an XMPP session, aka Bug ID CSCuw79085.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2016-1307 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires low privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
