Descriptions

A vulnerability in the malware detection functionality within Advanced Malware Protection (AMP) of Cisco AsyncOS Software for Cisco Email Security Appliances (ESAs) could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause an email attachment containing malware to be delivered to the end user. The vulnerability is due to the failure of AMP to scan certain EML attachments that could contain malware. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending an email with a crafted EML attachment through the targeted device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to bypass the configured ESA email message and content filtering and allow the malware to be delivered to the end user. Vulnerable Products: This vulnerability affects Cisco AsyncOS Software for Cisco ESA, both virtual and hardware appliances, that are configured with message or content filters to scan incoming email attachments on the ESA. Cisco Bug IDs: CSCuz81533.

Una vulnerabilidad en la funcionalidad de detección de malware en Advanced Malware Protection (AMP) de Cisco AsyncOS Software para Cisco Email Security Appliances (ESAs) podría permitir que un atacante remoto no autenticado envíe un archivo adjunto con malware en un email a un usuario final. Esta vulnerabilidad se debe al fallo de AMP en escanear ciertos archivos adjuntos EML que pudieran contener malware. Un atacante podría explotar esta vulnerabilidad mediante el envío de un email con un adjunto EML manipulado al dispositivo objetivo. Una explotación con éxito podría permitir que el atacante omita el filtrado de contenidos y de mensajes de email ESA configurado y dar lugar a que el malware se entregue al usuario final. Productos vulnerables: Esta vulnerabilidad afecta a Cisco AsyncOS Software para Cisco ESA, tanto para máquinas virtuales como físicas, que están configuradas con filtros de contenidos y mensajes para escanear los archivos de email adjuntos entrantes en los Email Security Appliances. Cisco Bug IDs: CSCuz81533.
