high Nessus Plugin ID 70784

Language:

Synopsis

The remote device is missing a vendor-supplied security patch.

Description

Cisco IOS XE Software for 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers (ASR) contains the following denial of service (DoS) vulnerabilities :

 - Cisco IOS XE Software TCP Segment Reassembly Denial of Service Vulnerability (CVE-2013-5543)

 - Cisco IOS XE Software Malformed EoGRE Packet Denial of Service Vulnerability (CVE-2013-5545)

 - Cisco IOS XE Software Malformed ICMP Packet Denial of Service Vulnerability (CVE-2013-5546)

 - Cisco IOS XE Software PPTP Traffic Denial of Service Vulnerability (CVE-2013-5547)

These vulnerabilities are independent of each other. A release that is affected by one of the vulnerabilities may not be affected by the others.

Successful exploitation of any of these vulnerabilities allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to trigger a reload of the Embedded Services Processors (ESP) card or the Route Processor (RP) card, which causes an interruption of services.

Repeated exploitation can result in a sustained DoS condition.

Solution

Apply the relevant patch referenced in Cisco Security Advisory cisco-sa-20131030-asr1000.
