TITLE

Cisco UWN Solution Denial of service in Japan (DoS) Vulnerability

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2010-004248

DESCRIPTION

Cisco Unified Wireless Network (UWN) Solution 7.x before 7.0.98.0 on 5508 series controllers allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer leak and device crash) via ARP requests that trigger an ARP storm, aka Bug ID CSCte43508. Exploiting these issues can allow an attacker to deny service to legitimate users, bypass security restrictions, gain unauthorized access, or execute arbitrary code. Other attacks may also be possible. Versions prior to Cisco Unified Wireless Network (UWN) 7.0.98.0 are vulnerable
