We had a pretty bad scare a couple of weeks ago. We thought we had been 
compromised, but after some serious troubleshooting we came to find a bug on 
the Cisco controller software.

We have two 2504 anchor controllers on our DMZ that serve guests only. In our 
ACS logs we started noticing successful authentications by external sources 
with some of our known user accounts. It turned out that the controller was 
simply sending the incorrect remote address. We tested this on 7.6.130 and also 
on 8.0.110. Cisco was able to reproduce it quite easily. 

So there you go. In case you run into this, hopefully this will save you from 
freaking out like we did.
