| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:S/C:N/I:N/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Cisco IOS versions 15.5(3)M and 15.6(1)T0a
Description
The issue is related to resource management errors in the Cisco IOS operating system. It allows a remote authenticated user to cause a denial of service, resulting in a device reload, by sending an SNMP request for unspecified BRIDGE MIB OIDs.
Recommendations
For Cisco IOS version 15.5(3)M, update to a version that fixes the resource management errors to prevent denial of service attacks.
For Cisco IOS version 15.6(1)T0a, update to a version that fixes the resource management errors to prevent denial of service attacks.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to SNMP requests for BRIDGE MIB OIDs to minimize the risk of exploitation.
