A vulnerability in the memory management handling for the Snort 3 Detection Engine of Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense (FTD) Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause the Snort 3 Detection Engine to restart.
This vulnerability is due to a logic error in memory management when a device is performing Snort 3 SSL packet inspection. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending crafted SSL packets through an established connection to be parsed by the Snort 3 Detection Engine. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition when the Snort 3 Detection Engine unexpectedly restarts.
AnalysisAI
Denial of service in Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense via crafted SSL packets allows unauthenticated remote attackers to crash the Snort 3 Detection Engine through a memory management logic error during SSL inspection. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by sending malicious SSL packets through an established connection, forcing the detection engine to unexpectedly restart and interrupt security monitoring. No patch is currently available for this medium-severity issue.
