Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-03-04 18:16 - Updated: 2026-03-05 19:39
Severity ?
5.8 (Medium) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:L
Summary
A vulnerability in the IKEv2 feature of Cisco Secure Firewall ASA Software and Cisco Secure FTD Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a DoS condition on an affected device that may also impact the availability of services to devices elsewhere in the network. This vulnerability is due to memory exhaustion caused by not freeing memory during IKEv2 packet processing. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending crafted IKEv2 packets to an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to exhaust resources, causing a DoS condition that will eventually require the device to manually reload.

Esta vulnerabilidad se debe al agotamiento de la memoria causado por no liberar memoria durante el procesamiento de paquetes IKEv2. Un atacante podr\u00eda explotar esta vulnerabilidad enviando paquetes IKEv2 manipulados a un dispositivo afectado. Un exploit exitoso podr\u00eda permitir al atacante agotar los recursos, causando una condici\u00f3n DoS que eventualmente requerir\u00e1 que el dispositivo se reinicie manualmente."
