Descriptions

A vulnerability in the Cisco Discovery Protocol of Cisco Unified Communications Manager (Unified CM) and Cisco Unified Communications Manager Session Management Edition (Unified CM SME) could allow an unauthenticated, adjacent attacker to cause a kernel panic on an affected system, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition. This vulnerability is due to incorrect processing of certain Cisco Discovery Protocol packets. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by continuously sending certain Cisco Discovery Protocol packets to an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause a kernel panic on the system that is running the affected software, resulting in a DoS condition.

Esta vulnerabilidad es debido al procesamiento incorrecto de determinados paquetes del Cisco Discovery Protocol. Un atacante podría explotar esta vulnerabilidad mediante el envío continuo de determinados paquetes de Cisco Discovery Protocol a un dispositivo afectado. Una explotación con éxito podría permitir al atacante causar un pánico del kernel en el sistema que está ejecutando el software afectado, resultando en una condición de DoS
