Hello All,

 

I am an SCCM admin and am required to remediate the following WebEx vulnerability:
CVE-2017-3823: Cisco WebEx Extension For Microsoft Internet Explorer Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

 

Remeditaion:
Update to the latest version of Cisco WebEx browser extension (1.0.4 or later)
Refer: https://tools.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/cisco-sa-20170124-webex
Donload: https://tools.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/cisco-sa-20170124-webex

 

However, I am unable to find the download for 'Cisco WebEx browser extension (1.0.4 or later)'

Could someone please advise the method to remediate for mass PCs? Thanks

In summary, the only way to fix the vulnerability is to update the browser extension to whatever is the latest.

Thanks - and that's where I need help. Where can I download the latest browser extension? I cannot find it upon searching the WebEx site, or google. Please help

For which browser? 

I have a list of vulnerabilities, the most common being for Internet Explorer - The scanner detects C:\ProgramData\webex\ieatgpc.dll v2.1.0.8 as vulnerable, and solution is to update it to WebEx browser extension (1.0.4 or later)

In addition, a few are also reported for Chrome:
%systemdrive%\users\user123\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Extensions\jlhmfgmfgeifomenelglieieghnjghma\1.0.1_0 cisco webex extension 1.0.1 is vulnerable
and the solution is to Update to the latest version of Cisco WebEx browser extension (1.0.12 or later)

*OS is Windows only

The ideal solution is to update these extensions for mass PCs silently without any user intervention (e.g. next launch of browser), though I am unclear if that is possible.
