Description:
Cisco has acknowledged a vulnerability in Cisco PIX and ASA appliances, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).
The vulnerability is caused due to an unspecified error in the processing of IP packets. This can be exploited to reload an affected device via specially crafted IP packets.
Successful exploitation requires that the Time-To-Live (TTL) decrement feature is enabled (disabled by default).
The vulnerability affects software versions 7.2(2) and later, prior to 7.2(3)006 or 8.0(3).
