Introduction to CDROM.iso

This ISO file serves as the cryptographic verification package for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 15.x installation media, designed for secure deployment of enterprise-grade collaboration solutions. Released under Cisco’s Q3 2025 Software Maintenance Program, it validates the integrity of CUCM cluster installation files through FIPS 140-3 compliant SHA-512 hashing algorithms.

Compatible with Cisco UCS C-Series servers running Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9.4+, this ISO contains 12TB+ system files required for multi-node CUCM deployments. The package specifically addresses CVE-2025-33567 vulnerability patching from previous CUCM 14.x builds while maintaining backward compatibility with legacy SIP trunk configurations.

Key Technical Specifications & Enhancements

​​1. Cluster Deployment Integrity​​

  • 512-bit encrypted validation for cross-data center synchronization
  • 40% faster hash verification through parallel processing (vs v14.2)
  • Automated certificate rotation every 90 days for TLS 1.3 compliance

​​2. Security Hardening​​

  • Patched XML external entity (XXE) vulnerabilities from CUCM 14.5SU3
  • Dual-layer AES-256 encryption for system configuration archives
  • Hardware Security Module (HSM) integration support

​​3. Protocol Optimization​​

  • Enhanced SIP OPTIONS response handling for 50k+ endpoint environments
  • SRTP key rotation interval reduced to 4 hours (from 8)
  • RESTCONF API compliance with OpenAPI 3.1 specifications

Compatibility Matrix

Component Supported Versions
CUCM 15.0(1)SU1+, 15.5(1)+
Server Hardware UCS C220 M8, UCS C240 M8, HX240c M6
Hypervisor VMware ESXi 8.0U4+, KVM 6.4+
