Description:Summary:
A vulnerability in the packet-processing code of Cisco IOS XR
Software for Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Routers (ASR) could allow an
unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a lockup and eventual reload of a network processor
chip and the line card that is processing traffic. Only Typhoon-based line cards on Cisco ASR
9000 Series Aggregation Services Routers are affected by this vulnerability.

Vulnerability Insight:
The vulnerability is due to improper processing of packets that
are routed via the bridge-group virtual interface (BVI) when any of the following features are
configured: Unicast Reverse Path Forwarding (uRPF), policy-based routing (PBR), quality of
service (QoS), or access control lists (ACLs). An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by
sending IPv4 packets through an affected device that is configured to route them via the BVI
interface.

Solution:
See the referenced vendor advisory for a solution.
