Description:
A security issue has been reported in Cisco Application Velocity System (AVS), which can be exploited by malicious people to use the device as an open relay.
The problem is caused due to insecure default settings allowing anyone to use the device as an open relay to any TCP service able to process data embedded in HTTP POST requests.
The security issue affects the following products:
* AVS 3110 versions 4.0 and 5.0 (and prior)
* AVS 3120 version 5.0.0 (and prior)
NOTE: According to Cisco PSIRT, the security issue is actively exploited to send unsolicited commercial e-mails and obscure the true originator.
