Cisco UCS Integrated Management Controller < 2.3(1) DoS (cisco-sa-20140908-ucse)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 77759

Synopsis

The remote device is running a vulnerable version of Cisco IMC.

Description

According to its self-reported version, the remote device is running a version of Cisco Integrated Management Controller (IMC) prior to 2.3(1) running on an E-series blade server. It is, therefore, affected by a flaw allowing a remote attacker to cause a denial of service by sending a specially crafted SSH packet to the SSH server running on the integrated controller. The controller will become unresponsive, however the operating system running on the blade server itself will be unaffected.

Solution

Upgrade to firmware version 2.3(1) or later.
