Cisco vulnerabilities

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Cisco IOS allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML, and execute IOS commands, via unspecified vectors, aka PSIRT-2022590358. NOTE: as of 20071016, the only disclosure is a vague pre-advisory with no actionable information. However, since it is from a well-known researcher, it is being assigned a CVE identifier for tracking purposes.

Stack-based buffer overflow in the Line Printer Daemon (LPD) in Cisco IOS before 12.2(18)SXF11, 12.4(16a), and 12.4(2)T6 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by setting a long hostname on the target system, then causing an error message to be printed, as demonstrated by a telnet session to the LPD from a source port other than 515.

Cisco IOS 12.2E, 12.2F, and 12.2S places a "no login" line into the VTY configuration when an administrator makes certain changes to a (1) VTY/AUX or (2) CONSOLE setting on a device without AAA enabled, which allows remote attackers to bypass authentication and obtain a terminal session, a different vulnerability than CVE-1999-0293 and CVE-2005-2105.

Unspecified vulnerability in Cisco IOS 12.0 through 12.4 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (device restart and BGP routing table rebuild) via certain regular expressions in a "show ip bgp regexp" command.

Cisco IOS 12.0, 12.1, and 12.2, when GRE IP tunneling is used and the RFC2784 compliance fixes are missing, does not verify the offset field of a GRE packet during decapsulation, which leads to an integer overflow that references data from incorrect memory locations, which allows remote attackers to inject crafted packets into the routing queue, possibly bypassing intended router ACLs.

Internet Key Exchange (IKE) version 1 protocol, as implemented on Cisco IOS, VPN 3000 Concentrators, and PIX firewalls, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource exhaustion) via a flood of IKE Phase-1 packets that exceed the session expiration rate. NOTE: it has been argued that this is due to a design weakness of the IKE version 1 protocol, in which case other vendors and implementations would also be affected.

The web interface on Cisco IOS 12.3(8)JA and 12.3(8)JA1, as used on the Cisco Wireless Access Point and Wireless Bridge, reconfigures itself when it is changed to use the "Local User List Only (Individual Passwords)" setting, which removes all security and password configurations and allows remote attackers to access the system.

Cisco IOS XR, when configured for Multi Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) and running on Cisco CRS-1 routers, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (Modular Services Cards (MSC) crash or "MPLS packet handling problems") via certain MPLS packets, as identified by Cisco bug IDs (1) CSCsd15970 and (2) CSCsd55531.

NOTE: these vectors were originally reported as being associated with the dump and packet options in /level/15/exec/-/show/buffers.

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in the Internet Key Exchange version 1 (IKEv1) implementation in multiple Cisco products allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (device reset) via certain malformed IKE packets, as demonstrated by the PROTOS ISAKMP Test Suite for IKEv1. NOTE: due to the lack of details in the Cisco advisory, it is unclear which of CVE-2005-3666, CVE-2005-3667, and/or CVE-2005-3668 this issue applies to.

Cisco IOS 12.0 to 12.4 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a heap-based buffer overflow in system timers. NOTE: this issue does not correspond to a specific vulnerability, rather a general weakness that only increases the feasibility of exploitation of any vulnerabilities that might exist. Such design-level weaknesses normally are not included in CVE, so perhaps this issue should be REJECTed.

Buffer overflow in Firewall Authentication Proxy for FTP and/or Telnet Sessions for Cisco IOS 12.2ZH and 12.2ZL, 12.3 and 12.3T, and 12.4 and 12.4T allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted user authentication credentials.
