CVE-2018-0296 – Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Denial-of-Service Vulnerability

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2018-0296

A vulnerability in the web interface of the Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause an affected device to reload unexpectedly, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition. It is also possible on certain software releases that the ASA will not reload, but an attacker could view sensitive system information without authentication by using directory traversal techniques. The vulnerability is due to lack of proper input validation of the HTTP URL. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted HTTP request to an affected device. An exploit could allow the attacker to cause a DoS condition or unauthenticated disclosure of information. • https://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/47220 https://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/44956 https://github.com/yassineaboukir/CVE-2018-0296 https://github.com/milo2012/CVE-2018-0296 https://github.com/bhenner1/CVE-2018-0296 https://github.com/qiantu88/CVE-2018-0296 http://packetstormsecurity.com/files/154017/Cisco-Adaptive-Security-Appliance-Path-Traversal.html http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/104612 http://www.securitytracker.com/id/1041076 https://ics-cert.us-cert.gov/advisories/ICSA- • CWE-20: Improper Input Validation CWE-22: Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory ('Path Traversal') •
