CVE-2022-20682

A vulnerability in the Control and Provisioning of Wireless Access Points (CAPWAP) protocol processing of Cisco IOS XE Wireless Controller Software for the Catalyst 9000 Family could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on an affected device. This vulnerability is due to inadequate input validation of incoming CAPWAP packets encapsulating multicast DNS (mDNS) queries. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by connecting to a wireless network and sending a crafted mDNS query, which would flow through and be processed by the wireless controller. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause the affected device to crash and reload, resulting in a DoS condition.

Una vulnerabilidad en el procesamiento del protocolo de control y aprovisionamiento de puntos de acceso inalámbricos (CAPWAP) de Cisco IOS XE Wireless Controller Software for the Catalyst 9000 Family podría permitir a un atacante remoto no autenticado causar una condición de denegación de servicio (DoS) en un dispositivo afectado. Esta vulnerabilidad es debido a una comprobación inapropiada de la entrada de paquetes CAPWAP entrantes que encapsulan consultas de DNS multidifusión (mDNS). Un atacante podría aprovechar esta vulnerabilidad al conectarse a una red inalámbrica y mediante el envío de una consulta mDNS diseñada, que fluiría y sería procesada por el controlador inalámbrico. Una explotación con éxito podría permitir al atacante causar a el dispositivo afectado bloquearse y se recargarse, resultando en una condición de DoS
