7.5 HIGH — AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P

Description

By design, the "established" command on the Cisco PIX firewall allows connections from one host to arbitrary ports of a target host if an alternative conduit has already been allowed, which can cause administrators to configure less restrictive access controls than intended if they do not understand this functionality.

Affected configurations

• cisco pix firewall
