Avaya has acknowledged some vulnerabilities in various Avaya products, where some have unknown impacts and others can be exploited by malicious users to bypass certain security restrictions and potentially by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.

  • Avaya Communication Manager (CM 4.0 and CM 2.x prior to load 127.0)
  • Avaya CCS/SES (CCS/SES 3.1.1)
