Cisco » Carrier Routing System : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs,

A vulnerability in the implementation of the Intermediate System–to–Intermediate System (IS–IS) routing protocol functionality in Cisco IOS XR Software could allow an unauthenticated attacker who is in the same IS–IS area to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition. The vulnerability is due to incorrect processing of crafted IS–IS link-state protocol data units (PDUs). An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted link-state PDU to an affected system to be processed. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause all routers within the IS–IS area to unexpectedly restart the IS–IS process, resulting in a DoS condition. This vulnerability affects Cisco devices if they are running a vulnerable release of Cisco IOS XR Software earlier than Release 6.6.3 and are configured with the IS–IS routing protocol. Cisco has confirmed that this vulnerability affects both Cisco IOS XR 32-bit Software and Cisco IOS XR 64-bit Software.

A vulnerability in the forwarding information base (FIB) code of Cisco IOS XR Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause inconsistency between the routing information base (RIB) and the FIB, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition. The vulnerability is due to incorrect processing of extremely long routing updates. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a large routing update. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to trigger inconsistency between the FIB and the RIB, resulting in a DoS condition. Cisco Bug IDs: CSCus84718.

Cisco Carrier Routing System (CRS) 5.1 and 5.1.4, as used in CRS Carrier Grade Services for CRS-1 and CRS-3 devices, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (line-card reload) via crafted IPv6-over-MPLS packets, aka Bug ID CSCva32494.

Cisco IOS XR 5.0.1 and 5.2.1 on Network Convergence System (NCS) 6000 devices and 5.1.3 and 5.1.4 on Carrier Routing System X (CRS-X) devices allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (line-card reload) via malformed IPv6 packets with extension headers, aka Bug ID CSCuq95241.

Cisco Carrier Routing System (CRS) allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (packet loss) via short malformed packets that trigger inefficient processing, aka Bug ID CSCud79136.

Cisco Carrier Routing System (CRS) 3.9, 4.0, and 4.1 allows remote attackers to bypass ACL entries via fragmented packets, aka Bug ID CSCtj10975.

Cisco Carrier Routing System 3.9.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (Metro subsystem crash) via a fragmented GRE packet, aka Bug ID CSCts14887.
