Descriptions

A vulnerability in the SIP inspection process of Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Software and Cisco Firepower Threat Defense (FTD) Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a crash and reload of an affected device, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition. The vulnerability is due to a watchdog timeout and crash during the cleanup of threads that are associated with a SIP connection that is being deleted from the connection list. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a high rate of crafted SIP traffic through an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause a watchdog timeout and crash, resulting in a crash and reload of the affected device.

Una vulnerabilidad en el proceso de inspección SIP de Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Software y Cisco Firepower Threat Defense (FTD) Software, podría permitir a un atacante remoto no autenticado causar un bloqueo y la recarga de un dispositivo afectado, resultando en una condición de denegación de servicio ( DoS). La vulnerabilidad es debido a un tiempo de espera del watchdog y un bloqueo durante la limpieza de los subprocesos que están asociados con una conexión SIP que está siendo eliminada de la lista de conexiones. Un atacante podría explotar esta vulnerabilidad mediante el envío de una alta tasa de tráfico SIP diseñado por medio de un dispositivo afectado. Una explotación con éxito podría permitir a un atacante causar un tiempo de espera del watchdog y un bloqueo, resultando en un bloqueo y la recarga del dispositivo afectado
