Descriptions

A vulnerability in the IPv6 processing code of Cisco IOS and IOS XE Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause the device to reload. The vulnerability is due to incorrect handling of specific IPv6 hop-by-hop options. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a malicious IPv6 packet to or through the affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause the device to reload, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition on an affected device.

Una vulnerabilidad en el código de procesamiento IPv6 en Cisco IOS y Cisco IOS XE Software podría permitir que un atacante remoto sin autenticar haga que el dispositivo se reinicie. La vulnerabilidad se debe a una gestión incorrecta de determinadas opciones hop-by-hop IPv6. Un atacante podría explotar esta vulnerabilidad enviando un paquete IPv6 malicioso a o a través del dispositivo afectado. Si se explota con éxito, podría permitir que el atacante consiga que el dispositivo se recargue, provocando una denegación de servicio (DoS) en un dispositivo afectado.
