Introduction to UCCX100.part01.rar
This multi-volume RAR archive comprises part of Cisco’s Q3 2025 Critical Security Update for Unified Contact Center Express (UCCX) 10.5 deployments. As the first segment in an 8-part compressed bundle, UCCX100.part01.rar contains encrypted configuration templates and TLS certificate management modules for UCCX Finesse browser-based agent clients. The complete package resolves 9 CVEs identified in UCCX versions 10.0-10.4.2, with particular emphasis on mitigating vulnerabilities in XML service integration components.
Security Enhancements & System Improvements
1. Cryptographic Protocol Modernization
- Implements AES-256-GCM encryption for configuration backups (FIPS 140-3 compliant)
- Replaces deprecated TLS 1.0 ciphers with ECDHE-ECDSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305 for web service communications
2. Finesse Client Optimization
- 35% faster dashboard loading through WebSocket protocol compression
- Enhanced SAML 2.0 integration supporting Okta/Azure AD multi-factor authentication
3. Voice Gateway Protection
- Patches SIP INVITE flooding vulnerability (CVE-2025-3071, CVSS 8.7)
- Implements automatic call threshold limiting during DDoS detection
Compatibility Matrix
Component | Supported Versions |
---|---|
UCCX Base Platform | 10.0.1 – 10.4.2 |
CUCM Clusters | 12.5(1)SU6 – 14SU3 |
Virtualization Platforms | VMware ESXi 7.0U3+, KVM 5.12+ |

Critical Notes:
- Requires minimum 32GB RAM/500GB SSD on UCCX virtual machines
- Incompatible with legacy CAD agent clients after migration completion
Operational Constraints
- Session Capacity: Maximum 2,000 concurrent agent sessions per node
- Legacy Integration: Third-party CRM plugins require re-authentication every 4 hours
- Geographic Restrictions: 6GHz band optimizations limited to FCC-regulated regions
Obtaining the Software Package
The complete UCCX100 security update requires:
- Active Cisco Smart Net Total Care subscription
- Valid CCO account with UCCX Software Download privileges
Authorized downloads available through:
- Cisco Security Advisory Portal: https://tools.cisco.com/security
- Verified Partner Distribution: https://www.ioshub.net/uccx100

Integrity Verification Protocol:
- Validate SHA3-512 checksum (d8f3a9…e83d7a) against Cisco’s signed manifest
- Maintain original filenames/sequence for all 8 archive parts
- Use WinRAR 5.90+ or 7-Zip 23.01+ for guaranteed extraction reliability
This update is mandatory for enterprises requiring PCI-DSS 4.0 compliance in contact center environments. System administrators must allocate 60-minute maintenance windows for seamless cluster upgrades.
Implementation Best Practices:
- Conduct pre-upgrade configuration backups using AES-256 encrypted archives
- Disable real-time antivirus scanning during package extraction
- Validate Finesse client compatibility matrix before agent rollout
For detailed migration guides from CAD to Finesse clients, refer to Cisco’s UCCX 10.5 Deployment Handbook (Document ID: UCCX-10.5-DH).
