Description

A vulnerability in the IP packet processing of Cisco Access Point (AP) Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on an affected device. This vulnerability is due to insufficient input validation of certain IPv4 packets. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted IPv4 packet either to or through an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause an affected device to reload unexpectedly, resulting in a DoS condition. To successfully exploit this vulnerability, the attacker does not need to be associated with the affected AP. This vulnerability cannot be exploited by sending IPv6 packets.

Affected configurations

• cisco ios xe (< 17.3.8) • cisco ios xe (>= 17.4 < 17.6.6) • cisco ios xe (>= 17.7 < 17.9.5) • cisco ios xe (>= 17.10 < 17.12.2) • cisco business access points (< 10.9.1.0) • cisco business access points (< 10.6.2.0) • cisco wireless lan controller software (< 8.10.190.0)
