A vulnerability in the TLS library of Cisco IOS XE Software could allow an unauthenticated, adjacent attacker to exhaust the available memory of an affected device. This vulnerability is due to improper management of memory resources during TLS connection setup. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by repeatedly triggering the conditions that cause the memory increase. This could be done in a variety of ways, such as by repeatedly attempting Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) authentication when local EAP is enabled on an affected device or by using a machine-in-the-middle attack and resetting TLS connections between the affected device and other devices. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to exhaust the available memory on an affected device, resulting in an unexpected reload and a denial of service (DoS) condition.
AnalysisAI
Memory exhaustion in Cisco IOS XE and Apple devices via improper TLS resource handling allows adjacent attackers to trigger denial of service by repeatedly initiating failed authentication or manipulating TLS connections. An unauthenticated attacker can exploit this by resetting TLS sessions or abusing EAP authentication mechanisms to deplete device memory without requiring network access from the internet. …
