The vulnerabilities are not dependent on one another. Exploitation of one of the vulnerabilities is not required to exploit another vulnerability.
Details about the vulnerabilities are as follows:
CVE-2024-20450, CVE-2024-20452, and CVE-2024-20454: Cisco Small Business SPA300 Series and SPA500 Series IP Phones Web UI Arbitrary Command Execution Vulnerability
Multiple vulnerabilities in the web-based management interface of Cisco Small Business SPA300 Series IP Phones and Cisco Small Business SPA500 Series IP Phones could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the underlying operating system with root privileges.
These vulnerabilities exist because incoming HTTP packets are not properly checked for errors, which could result in a buffer overflow. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted HTTP request to an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to overflow an internal buffer and execute arbitrary commands at the root privilege level.
Cisco has not released software updates that address these vulnerabilities. There are no workarounds that address these vulnerabilities.
