Cisco devices that are running Cisco IOS Software are vulnerable when they are configured for IP SLA, either as responders or as originators of vulnerable IP SLA operations.
To determine the Cisco IOS Software release that is running on a Cisco product, administrators can log in to the device and issue the show version command to display the system banner. The system banner confirms that the device is running Cisco IOS Software by displaying text similar to “Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software” or “Cisco IOS Software.” The image name displays in parentheses, followed by “Version” and the Cisco IOS Software release name. Other Cisco devices do not have the show version command or may provide different output.

- NetMeeting Directory NAT (LDAP on TCP port 389)
- NAT for Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)
- NAT for H.323
Details
- NAT for NetMeeting Directory (LDAP) Vulnerability: LDAP is a protocol for querying and modifying data of directory services implemented in IP networks. NAT for NetMeeting Directory, also known as the Internet Locator Service (ILS), translates LDAP packets on TCP port 389. The inspected port is not configurable. This vulnerability is triggered by malformed transit LDAP traffic that needs to be processed by the NAT for NetMeeting Directory feature.
- Four vulnerabilities in the NAT for SIP feature are described in this document:
- NAT of SIP over TCP vulnerability: Crafted SIP packets on TCP port 5060 could cause unpredictable results, including the reload of the vulnerable device. Translation of SIP over TCP packets will be disabled by default with the fix for this vulnerability.
- Provider edge Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) NAT of SIP over UDP packets DoS vulnerability: A malformed SIP packet on UDP 5060 that transits an MPLS enabled vulnerable device that needs an MPLS tag to be imposed on the malformed packet might reload the device.
- NAT of crafted SIP over UDP packets DoS vulnerabilities: There are two DoS vulnerabilities related to similar crafted packets on UDP port 5060 that require SIP translation: the first is a vulnerability that will cause the device to reload and the second will cause a memory leak that could lead to a DoS condition, including reload of the vulnerable device.
- NAT of H.323 Packets DoS Vulnerability
- Transit crafted H.323 packets on TCP port 1720 could cause a reload of the vulnerable device.

Repeated exploitation of the memory leak vulnerability can lead to a DoS condition in which the device reloads or becomes unresponsive. Reloading may occur automatically, or the device may require manual intervention to reload.

Jabber XCP and Cisco Unified Presence provide an open and extensible platform that facilitates the secure exchange of availability and instant messaging (IM) information.
The XML parsers in Jabber XCP (including JabberNow appliances) and Cisco Unified Presence are vulnerable to the Exponential Entity Expansion attack. This attack is also known as an XML Bomb referring to an XML document that is valid according to the rules of an XML schema yet results in the hanging or crash of the parser or underlying server. The attack is often referred to as the Billion Laughs Attack because many proof of concept examples caused XML parsers to expand the string lol or ha up to a billion times or until server resources were exhausted.
The attack combines certain properties of XML to create valid but malicious XML using an extreme level of nested substitutions. When an XML parser attempts to expand all the nested entities it quickly exhausts all server resources.
This technique will cause the XML parsers in Cisco Unified Presence and Jabber XCP (including JabberNow appliances) to trigger high CPU and memory usage resulting in process crashes. The attack affects both client-to-server connections as well as server-to-server (federation) links.
Impact
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could cause elevated memory and CPU utilization, resulting in memory exhaustion and process crashes. Repeated exploitation could result in a sustained DoS condition.
