VAR-200908-0381

Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-10 23:18

Cisco Aironet Lightweight Access Point (AP) devices send the contents of certain multicast data frames in cleartext, which allows remote attackers to discover Wireless LAN Controller MAC addresses and IP addresses, and AP configuration details, by sniffing the wireless network. Cisco Lightweight Access Point is prone to a remote denial-of-service vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this issue to cause the affected device to stop responding, denying service to legitimate users. This issue is being tracked by Cisco Bug ID CSCtb56664. Cisco Aironet wireless access points (APs) are very popular wireless access network devices. This paper associates devices with malicious controllers so that wireless clients cannot access legitimate network resources. This is a denial of service

Drag nodes to arrange them. Double-click a related vulnerability to open it, or a source to visit its link. The Physics button on the left tunes the layout and the simulation; the legend at the bottom left hides or shows nodes by kind and by sighting type.

Forecast uses a logistic model when the trend is rising, or an exponential decay model when the trend is falling. Fitted via linearized least squares.
