Descriptions

A vulnerability in the IPv6 traffic processing of Cisco IOS XR Software and Cisco NX-OS Software for certain Cisco devices could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to bypass an IPv6 access control list (ACL) that is configured for an interface of an affected device. The vulnerability is due to improper processing of IPv6 traffic that is sent through an affected device. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending crafted IPv6 packets that traverse the affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to access resources that would typically be protected by the interface ACL.

Una vulnerabilidad en el procesamiento del tráfico IPv6 del Software Cisco IOS XR, y el Software Cisco NX-OS para determinados dispositivos Cisco, podría permitir a un atacante remoto no autenticado omitir una lista de control de acceso (ACL) IPv6 configurada para una interfaz de un dispositivo afectado. La vulnerabilidad es debido al procesamiento inapropiado del tráfico IPv6 que se envía por medio de un dispositivo afectado. Un atacante podría explotar esta vulnerabilidad mediante el envío de paquetes IPv6 diseñados que atraviesan el dispositivo afectado. Una explotación con éxito podría permitir al atacante acceder a recursos que normalmente estarían protegidos por la interfaz ACL
