CVE-2018-15462

A vulnerability in the TCP ingress handler for the data interfaces that are configured with management access to Cisco Firepower Threat Defense (FTD) Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause an increase in CPU and memory usage, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition. The vulnerability is due to insufficient ingress TCP rate limiting for TCP ports 22 (SSH) and 443 (HTTPS). An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted, steady stream of TCP traffic to port 22 or 443 on the data interfaces that are configured with management access to the affected device.

Una vulnerabilidad en el controlador de ingreso de TCP para las interfaces de datos que están configuradas con acceso de administración al programa Cisco Firepower Threat Defense (FTD) podría permitir que un atacante remoto no autenticado provoque un aumento en el uso de la CPU y la memoria, dando como resultado una denegación de servicio( DoS) condición. La vulnerabilidad se debe a una limitación de la tasa de TCP de ingreso insuficiente para los puertos TCP 22 (SSH) y 443 (HTTPS). Un atacante podría atacar esta vulnerabilidad enviando un flujo de tráfico TCP continuo y creado al puerto 22 o 443 en las interfaces de datos que están configuradas con acceso de administración al dispositivo afectado.
