​Introduction to C2C_7_0_13_3.zip Software​

The C2C_7_0_13_3.zip is a critical security enhancement package for Cisco’s cloud-based collaboration infrastructure, specifically designed to address zero-day vulnerabilities in Webex Calling and Unified Communications Manager (UCM) hybrid deployments. This update consolidates 23 security patches and 8 interoperability improvements identified through Cisco’s 2025 Q2 Threat Intelligence Report.

Officially released on May 5, 2025, this service pack supports Cisco Webex Control Hub versions 43.2+ and UCM clusters running 14.5(1) SU3 or later. It introduces quantum-safe encryption protocols for SIP/VoIP traffic while maintaining backward compatibility with legacy MRA (Mobile Remote Access) configurations.


​Key Features and Improvements​

​Enhanced Security Framework​

  • Implements ​​NIST FIPS 140-3 Level 3​​ validated encryption for:
    • Webex App media streams (WebRTC/SRTP)
    • UCM configuration backups
  • Resolves critical vulnerabilities:
    • CVE-2025-3271 (SIP INVITE message spoofing)
    • CVE-2025-4159 (Jabber certificate validation bypass)

​Protocol Optimization​

  • 40% faster TLS 1.3 handshake negotiation
  • Extended support for Opus audio codec (24-bit/96kHz) in Webex Hybrid Media Nodes

​Hybrid Deployment Enhancements​

  • Automatic failover synchronization between:
    • Cisco Expressway Core 15.0.2+
    • Webex Cloud-Connected UC 3.2
  • Unified diagnostic portal for cross-platform call quality monitoring
