A flaw in the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) subsystem occurs due to improper error handling when parsing response data for a specific SNMP request. An authenticated remote attacker can exploit this by sending a crafted SNMP request, causing the device to reload unexpectedly and resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition. This issue affects SNMP versions 1, 2c, and 3. Exploitation via SNMPv2c or earlier requires a valid read-write or read-only SNMP community string, while exploitation via SNMPv3 requires valid SNMP user credentials.
