Description:
A vulnerability has been reported in Ciso IOS, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) or potentially compromise a vulnerable network device.
The vulnerability is caused due to an unspecified error within the processing of IPv6 traffic and can be exploited via a specially crafted IPv6 packet received on a logical interface.
Successful exploitation requires that the packet is sent from a local network segment and that the device is configured for IPv6.
