Descriptions

A vulnerability in the ingress packet processing function of Cisco IOS XR Software for Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Routers could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on an affected device. The vulnerability is due to improper resource allocation when an affected device processes network traffic in software switching mode (punted). An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending specific streams of Layer 2 or Layer 3 protocol data units (PDUs) to an affected device. A successful exploit could cause the affected device to run out of buffer resources, which could make the device unable to process or forward traffic, resulting in a DoS condition. The device would need to be restarted to regain functionality.

Una vulnerabilidad en la función de procesamiento de paquetes de entrada de Cisco IOS XR Software para Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Routers, podría permitir a un atacante remoto no autenticado causar una condición de denegación de servicio (DoS) en un dispositivo afectado. La vulnerabilidad es debido a una asignación inapropiada de recursos cuando un dispositivo afectado procesa el tráfico de red en modo de switching de software (punteado). Un atacante podría explotar esta vulnerabilidad mediante el envío de secuencias específicas de unidades de datos de protocolo (PDU) de capa 2 o capa 3 hacia un dispositivo afectado. Un explotación con éxito podría causar a un dispositivo afectado quedarse sin recursos de búfer, que podría hacer que el dispositivo se inhabilite para procesar o reenviar el tráfico, resultando en una condición DoS. El dispositivo deberá ser reiniciado para recuperar la funcionalidad
