A vulnerability in the Advanced Malware Protection (AMP) feature of Cisco Secure Email Gateway could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to write arbitrary files on the underlying operating system.

This vulnerability is due to improper handling of email attachments when the file reputation service is enabled.

A successful exploit could allow the attacker to write arbitrary files and execute commands with root privileges on the underlying operating system.
