Cisco Security Advisory: Cisco IOS and IOS XE Software Bidirectional Forwarding Detection Denial of Service Vulnerability

Advisory ID: cisco-sa-20180328-bfd

Revision: 1.0

For Public Release: 2018 March 28 16:00 GMT

Last Updated: 2018 March 28 16:00 GMT

CVE ID(s): CVE-2018-0155

CVSS Score v(3): 8.6 CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:H

+———————————————————————

Summary
=======
A vulnerability in the Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) offload implementation of Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series Switches and Cisco Catalyst 4500-X Series Switches could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a crash of the iosd process, causing a denial of service (DoS) condition.

The vulnerability is due to insufficient error handling when the BFD header in a BFD packet is incomplete. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted BFD message to or across an affected switch. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to trigger a reload of the system.

Cisco has released software updates that address this vulnerability. There are no workarounds that address this vulnerability.
