CVE-2020-3408

A vulnerability in the Split DNS feature of Cisco IOS Software and Cisco IOS XE Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause an affected device to reload, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition. The vulnerability occurs because the regular expression (regex) engine that is used with the Split DNS feature of affected releases may time out when it processes the DNS name list configuration. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by trying to resolve an address or hostname that the affected device handles. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause the device to reload, resulting in a DoS condition.

Una vulnerabilidad en la funcionalidad Split DNS de Cisco IOS Software y Cisco IOS XE Software, podría permitir a un atacante remoto no autenticado causar la recarga de un dispositivo afectado, resultando en una condición de denegación de servicio (DoS). La vulnerabilidad ocurre porque el motor de expresión regular (regex) que es usado con la funcionalidad Split DNS de versiones afectadas puede expirar cuando procesa la configuración de la lista de nombres DNS. Un atacante podría explotar esta vulnerabilidad al intentar resolver una dirección o hostname que maneja el dispositivo afectado. Una explotación con éxito podría permitir al atacante causar que el dispositivo se recargue, resultando en una condición de DoS.
