Title:SNMP Remote Code Execution Vulnerabilities in Cisco IOS Software
Summary:The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) subsystem of Cisco IOS Software;contains multiple vulnerabilities that could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to remotely execute code on;an affected system or cause an affected system to reload. An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by;sending a crafted SNMP packet to an affected system via IPv4 or IPv6. Only traffic directed to an affected system;can be used to exploit these vulnerabilities.
Description:Summary:
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) subsystem of Cisco IOS Software
contains multiple vulnerabilities that could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to remotely execute code on
an affected system or cause an affected system to reload. An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by
sending a crafted SNMP packet to an affected system via IPv4 or IPv6. Only traffic directed to an affected system
can be used to exploit these vulnerabilities.

Vulnerability Insight:
The vulnerabilities are due to a buffer overflow condition in the SNMP
subsystem of the affected software. The vulnerabilities affect all versions of SNMP - Versions 1, 2c, and 3. To
exploit these vulnerabilities via SNMP Version 2c or earlier, the attacker must know the SNMP read-only community
string for the affected system. To exploit these vulnerabilities via SNMP Version 3, the attacker must have user
credentials for the affected system.

Vulnerability Impact:
A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code and
obtain full control of the affected system or cause the affected system to reload.

Solution:
See the referenced vendor advisory for a solution.
