VAR-200511-0399

Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-03 22:34

The Cisco Management Center (MC) for IPS Sensors (IPS MC) 2.1 can omit port field values while generating the Cisco IOS IPS configuration file, wich can cause some signatures to be disabled and makes it easier for attackers to escape detection. Cisco IDS/IPS solution, configured by either Cisco IPS MC v2.1, Cisco IDS MC, Cisco SDM or by using the Cisco IOS CLI are vulnerable as well. This causes some signatures belonging to certain classes to be incorrectly disabled, potentially allowing malicious traffic to pass through.

SOLUTION: Apply patches. http://www.cisco.com/pcgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/mgmt-ctr-ids-app

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY: Reported by vendor.
