Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
A vulnerability in the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) subsystem of Cisco Nexus 9000 Series Fabric Switches in ACI mode could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on an affected device.
This vulnerability is due to improper processing when parsing SNMP requests. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by continuously sending SNMP queries to a specific MIB of an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause a kernel panic on the device, resulting in a reload and a DoS condition. Note: This vulnerability affects SNMP versions 1, 2c, and 3. To exploit this vulnerability through SNMPv1 or SNMPv2c, the attacker must have a valid read-only SNMP community string for the affected system. To exploit this vulnerability through SNMPv3, the attacker must have valid SNMP user credentials for the affected system.
AnalysisAI
Improper SNMP request parsing in Cisco Nexus 9000 Series switches running ACI mode allows authenticated remote attackers to trigger kernel panics and device reloads by sending specially crafted queries to specific MIBs. An attacker with valid SNMP read-only community credentials can exploit this vulnerability across SNMP versions 1, 2c, and 3 to achieve denial of service. No patch is currently available for this vulnerability.
