Descriptions

A vulnerability in the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)/Transport Layer Security (TLS) handler of Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Software and Cisco Firepower Threat Defense (FTD) Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to exhaust memory resources on the affected device, leading to a denial of service (DoS) condition. The vulnerability is due to improper resource management for inbound SSL/TLS connections. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by establishing multiple SSL/TLS connections with specific conditions to the affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to exhaust the memory on the affected device, causing the device to stop accepting new SSL/TLS connections and resulting in a DoS condition for services on the device that process SSL/TLS traffic. Manual intervention is required to recover an affected device.

Una vulnerabilidad en el manejador de Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)/Transport Layer Security (TLS) del Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Software y el Cisco Firepower Threat Defense (FTD) Software, podría permitir a un atacante remoto no autenticado agotar los recursos de la memoria sobre el dispositivo afectado, conllevando a una condición de denegación de servicio (DoS). La vulnerabilidad es debido a una administración de recursos inapropiada para las conexiones entrantes SSL/TLS. Un atacante podría explotar esta vulnerabilidad al establecer múltiples conexiones SSL/TLS con condiciones específicas para el dispositivo afectado. Una explotación con éxito podría permitir al atacante agotar la memoria en el dispositivo afectado, causando que el dispositivo deje de aceptar nuevas conexiones SSL/TLS y resultando en una condición DoS para los servicios en el dispositivo que procesa el tráfico SSL/TLS. Es requerida una intervención manual para recuperar un dispositivo afectado.
