The remote Cisco ASA device is affected by one or more of the following vulnerabilities :
- A denial of service vulnerability exists due to improper clearing of unused memory blocks after an AnyConnect SSL VPN client disconnects. (CVE-2013-3415)
- A denial of service vulnerability exists resulting from an error in the code that decrypts packets transiting an active VPN tunnel. (CVE-2013-5507)
- A denial of service vulnerability exists due to improper handling of segmented Transparent Network Substrate (TNS) packets. (CVE-2013-5508)
- An authentication bypass vulnerability exists resulting due to an error in handling a client crafted certificate during the authentication phase. (CVE-2013-5509)
- An authentication bypass vulnerability exists due to improper parsing of the LDAP response packet received from a remote AAA LDAP server. (CVE-2013-5510)
- An authentication bypass vulnerability exists due to an error in the implementation of the authentication-certificate option. (CVE-2013-5511)
- A denial of service vulnerability exists due to improper handling of a race condition during inspection of HTTP packets by the HTTP DPI engine. (CVE-2013-5512)
