A vulnerability in the web services of Cisco Secure Firewall Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Software, Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense (FTD) Software, Cisco IOS Software, Cisco IOS XE Software, and Cisco IOS XR Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker (Cisco ASA and FTD Software) or authenticated, remote attacker (Cisco IOS, IOS XE, and IOS XR Software) with low user privileges to execute arbitrary code on an affected device. This vulnerability is due to improper validation of user-supplied input in HTTP requests. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending crafted HTTP requests to a targeted web service on an affected device after obtaining additional information about the system, overcoming exploit mitigations, or both. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code as root, which may lead to the complete compromise of the affected device. For more information about this vulnerability, see the Details ["#details"] section of this advisory.

A vulnerability in the Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) feature of Cisco IOS Software and Cisco IOS XE Software could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to bypass command authorization and copy files to or from the file system of an affected device using the Secure Copy Protocol (SCP). This vulnerability is due to incorrect processing of SCP commands in AAA command authorization checks. An attacker with valid credentials and level 15 privileges could exploit this vulnerability by using SCP to connect to an affected device from an external machine. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to obtain or change the configuration of the affected device and put files on or retrieve files from the affected device.

A vulnerability in the implementation of the Low Power, Wide Area (LPWA) subsystem of Cisco IOS Software for Cisco 800 Series Industrial Integrated Services Routers (Industrial ISRs) and Cisco 1000 Series Connected Grid Routers (CGR1000) could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to gain unauthorized read access to sensitive data or cause a denial of service (DoS) condition. The vulnerability is due to a lack of input and validation checking mechanisms for virtual-LPWA (VLPWA) protocol modem messages. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by supplying crafted packets to an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to gain unauthorized read access to sensitive data or cause the VLPWA interface of the affected device to shut down, resulting in DoS condition.

Multiple vulnerabilities in Cisco IOS Software for Cisco 809 and 829 Industrial Integrated Services Routers (Industrial ISRs) and Cisco 1000 Series Connected Grid Routers (CGR1000) could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker or an authenticated, local attacker to execute arbitrary code on an affected system or cause an affected system to crash and reload. For more information about these vulnerabilities, see the Details section of this advisory.

Multiple vulnerabilities in Cisco IOS Software for Cisco 809 and 829 Industrial Integrated Services Routers (Industrial ISRs) and Cisco 1000 Series Connected Grid Routers (CGR1000) could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker or an authenticated, local attacker to execute arbitrary code on an affected system or cause an affected system to crash and reload. For more information about these vulnerabilities, see the Details section of this advisory.

Multiple vulnerabilities in the web-based user interface (Web UI) of Cisco IOS XE Software could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to execute commands with elevated privileges on the affected device. For more information about these vulnerabilities, see the Details section of this advisory.

A vulnerability in Cisco IOS XE Software could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to execute commands on the underlying Linux shell of an affected device with root privileges. The vulnerability occurs because the affected software improperly sanitizes user-supplied input. An attacker who has valid administrator access to an affected device could exploit this vulnerability by supplying a username with a malicious payload in the web UI and subsequently making a request to a specific endpoint in the web UI. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to run arbitrary commands as the root user, allowing complete compromise of the system.

A vulnerability in the Smart Install feature of Cisco IOS Software and Cisco IOS XE Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to trigger a reload of an affected device, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition, or to execute arbitrary code on an affected device. The vulnerability is due to improper validation of packet data. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted Smart Install message to an affected device on TCP port 4786. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause a buffer overflow on the affected device, which could have the following impacts: Triggering a reload of the device, Allowing the attacker to execute arbitrary code on the device, Causing an indefinite loop on the affected device that triggers a watchdog crash. Cisco Bug IDs: CSCvg76186.

The DHCP relay subsystem of Cisco IOS 12.2 through 15.6 and Cisco IOS XE Software contains a vulnerability that could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary code and gain full control of an affected system. The attacker could also cause an affected system to reload, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition. The vulnerability is due to a buffer overflow condition in the DHCP relay subsystem of the affected software. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted DHCP Version 4 (DHCPv4) packet to an affected system. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code and gain full control of the affected system or cause the affected system to reload, resulting in a DoS condition. Cisco Bug IDs: CSCsm45390, CSCuw77959.

A vulnerability in the Cisco Cluster Management Protocol (CMP) processing code in Cisco IOS and Cisco IOS XE Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a reload of an affected device or remotely execute code with elevated privileges. The Cluster Management Protocol utilizes Telnet internally as a signaling and command protocol between cluster members. The vulnerability is due to the combination of two factors: (1) the failure to restrict the use of CMP-specific Telnet options only to internal, local communications between cluster members and instead accept and process such options over any Telnet connection to an affected device; and (2) the incorrect processing of malformed CMP-specific Telnet options. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending malformed CMP-specific Telnet options while establishing a Telnet session with an affected Cisco device configured to accept Telnet connections. An exploit could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code and obtain full control of the device or cause a reload of the affected device. This affects Catalyst switches, Embedded Service 2020 switches, Enhanced Layer 2 EtherSwitch Service Module, Enhanced Layer 2/3 EtherSwitch Service Module, Gigabit Ethernet Switch Module (CGESM) for HP, IE Industrial Ethernet switches, ME 4924-10GE switch, RF Gateway 10, and SM-X Layer 2/3 EtherSwitch Service Module. Cisco Bug IDs: CSCvd48893.

Cisco IOS 12.0, 15.0, and 15.1, when a Policy Feature Card 3C (PFC3C) is used, does not create a fragment entry during processing of an ICMPv6 ACL, which has unspecified impact and remote attack vectors, aka Bug ID CSCtj90091.

Unspecified vulnerability in the Smart Install functionality in Cisco IOS 12.2 and 15.1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (device crash) via crafted TCP packets to port 4786, aka Bug ID CSCto10165.

The PKI functionality in Cisco IOS 15.0 and 15.1 does not prevent permanent caching of certain public keys, which allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and have unspecified other impact by leveraging an IKE peer relationship in which a key was previously valid but later revoked, aka Bug ID CSCth82164, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-4685.

Unspecified vulnerability in the SIP implementation in Cisco IOS 12.3 and 12.4 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a malformed SIP message, aka Bug ID CSCsz48680, the "SIP Message Processing Arbitrary Code Execution Vulnerability."

Unspecified vulnerability in the SIP implementation in Cisco IOS 12.3 and 12.4 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a malformed SIP message, aka Bug ID CSCsz89904, the "SIP Packet Parsing Arbitrary Code Execution Vulnerability."

Cisco IOS 12.2 and 12.3 on Cisco uBR10012 series devices, when linecard redundancy is configured, enables a read/write SNMP service with "private" as the community, which allows remote attackers to obtain administrative access by guessing this community and sending SNMP requests.

CERT has told us of an authentication bypass flaw in Net-SNMP and UCD-SNMP.

According to net-snmp:

"The quick technical summary is that the SNMPv3 packet contains a truncated HMAC authentication code. The author that wrote the code very very long ago to check that HMAC code used the length of the packet's version of the HMAC code to do the check. Thus if you send a single byte HMAC code, it'll only check it against the first byte of HMAC output. Thus it's fairly easy to spoof an authenticated SNMPv3 packet."

Integer overflow in Cisco IOS allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors. NOTE: as of 20071016, the only disclosure is a vague pre-advisory with no actionable information. However, since it is from a well-known researcher, it is being assigned a CVE identifier for tracking purposes.

Stack-based buffer overflow in the Line Printer Daemon (LPD) in Cisco IOS before 12.2(18)SXF11, 12.4(16a), and 12.4(2)T6 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by setting a long hostname on the target system, then causing an error message to be printed, as demonstrated by a telnet session to the LPD from a source port other than 515.

Unspecified vulnerability in Cisco IOS and Cisco IOS XR 12.x up to 12.3, including some versions before 12.3(15) and 12.3(14)T, allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information (partial packet contents) or cause a denial of service (router or component crash) via crafted IPv6 packets with a Type 0 routing header.

Multiple memory leaks in Cisco IOS 12.0 through 12.4 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (device crash) via a malformed SIP packet, aka (1) CSCsf11855, (2) CSCeb21064, (3) CSCse40276, (4) CSCse68355, (5) CSCsf30058, (6) CSCsb24007, and (7) CSCsc60249.

Buffer overflow in the Next Hop Resolution Protocol (NHRP) functionality in Cisco IOS 12.0 through 12.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (restart) and execute arbitrary code via a crafted NHRP packet.

The FTP Server in Cisco IOS 11.3 through 12.4 does not properly check user authorization, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code, and have other impact including reading startup-config, as demonstrated by a crafted MKD command that involves access to a VTY device and overflows a buffer, aka bug ID CSCek55259.

Cisco IOS 12.2 through 12.4 before 20060920, as used by Cisco IAD2430, IAD2431, and IAD2432 Integrated Access Devices, the VG224 Analog Phone Gateway, and the MWR 1900 and 1941 Mobile Wireless Edge Routers, is incorrectly identified as supporting DOCSIS, which allows remote attackers to gain read-write access via a hard-coded cable-docsis community string and read or modify arbitrary SNMP variables.

The web interface on Cisco IOS 12.3(8)JA and 12.3(8)JA1, as used on the Cisco Wireless Access Point and Wireless Bridge, reconfigures itself when it is changed to use the "Local User List Only (Individual Passwords)" setting, which removes all security and password configurations and allows remote attackers to access the system.

Cisco IOS 12.0 to 12.4 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a heap-based buffer overflow in system timers. NOTE: this issue does not correspond to a specific vulnerability, rather a general weakness that only increases the feasibility of exploitation of any vulnerabilities that might exist. Such design-level weaknesses normally are not included in CVE, so perhaps this issue should be REJECTed.
