CVE-2023-20169

Ein entfernter authentifizierter Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen in Cisco Nexus ausnutzen, um Informationen offenzulegen, Dateien zu manipulieren oder einen Denial-of-Service-Zustand auszulösen.

A vulnerability in the Intermediate System-to-Intermediate System (IS-IS) protocol of Cisco NX-OS Software for the Cisco Nexus 3000 Series Switches and Cisco Nexus 9000 Series Switches in standalone NX-OS mode could allow an unauthenticated, adjacent attacker to cause the IS-IS process to unexpectedly restart, which could cause an affected device to reload. This vulnerability is due to insufficient input validation when parsing an ingress IS-IS packet. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted IS-IS packet to an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition due to the unexpected restart of the IS-IS process, which could cause the affected device to reload. Note: The IS-IS protocol is a routing protocol. To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker must be Layer 2 adjacent to the affected device. Cisco has released software updates that address this vulnerability. There are no workarounds that address this vulnerability.
