## What to check

- Applies to: The 5 CVEs named below. Whether you run an affected version is not assessed: check the versions the source lists.
- Exploitation: CISA lists CVE-2026-111497 as exploited in the wild.

CERT-FR published an advisory consolidating multiple vulnerabilities affecting a wide range of Cisco products, including Business Process Automation, Catalyst Center, Duo Authentication Proxy, Intersight, Nexus 9000 Series Switches, Packet Tracer, Private 5G, Spaces, UCS Central Software, Webex Connect, and others. The vulnerabilities allow an attacker to achieve remote code execution, bypass security policies, or trigger issues not specified by the vendor.

Patch timelines vary significantly by product, with some fixes already available and others not expected until as late as March 2027 (Smart PHY) or July 2027 (Catalyst Center). Several products have no confirmed patch date yet. The advisory references two Cisco security bulletins: one addressing a UCS-related RCE issue (cisco-sa-cucs-rce) and another addressing Node.js-related vulnerabilities (cisco-sa-oct2026-node-js), alongside five CVE identifiers. No in-the-wild exploitation is mentioned in this advisory.

Defenders operating any of the listed Cisco products should review the referenced Cisco security bulletins to determine applicability and plan remediation according to each product's specific patch timeline. Given the extended timelines for some fixes, compensating controls and monitoring should be considered for affected systems until patches are released.
