Omschrijving
Cisco heeft meerdere kwetsbaarheden verholpen in Snort 3, het open source intrusion detection en prevention systeem dat in diverse Cisco-producten wordt gebruikt.
De kwetsbaarheden bevinden zich in verschillende componenten van de Snort 3 Detection Engine, waaronder de SMTP MIME Decoder, NetFlow Detection Engine, GRE Detection Engine, Teredo Detection Engine, VBA Decompression Engine, en de memory management. Ongeauthenticeerde remote aanvallers kunnen speciaal vervaardigde pakketten of datagrammen versturen die leiden tot onverwachte herstarts van de detectie-engine, wat resulteert in een denial of service. Daarnaast is er een kwetsbaarheid in de control channel socket die een geauthenticeerde lokale aanvaller met lage privileges in staat stelt om arbitrary commands uit te voeren en toegang te krijgen tot het geheugen van het Snort 3 proces. De kwetsbaarheden beïnvloeden de stabiliteit, betrouwbaarheid en continuïteit van netwerkverkeersinspectie en dreigingsdetectie binnen de getroffen Cisco-producten.
Oplossingen
Cisco heeft updates en software hardening releases uitgebracht om deze kwetsbaarheden in Snort 3 te verhelpen. Zie bijgevoegde referenties voor meer informatie.
