CVE-2014-0719

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Cisco IPS Software versions prior to 7.1(8p2)E4 Cisco IPS Software versions prior to 7.2(2)E4

Description The issue is related to the control-plane access-list implementation, allowing remote attackers to cause a denial of service by sending crafted packets to TCP port 7000. This results in a MainApp process outage.

Recommendations For versions prior to 7.1(8p2)E4, update to version 7.1(8p2)E4 or later. For versions prior to 7.2(2)E4, update to version 7.2(2)E4 or later. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to TCP port 7000 to minimize the risk of exploitation.
