Discussion

Multiple Cisco FWSM Vulnerabilities

Cisco has reported the following vulnerabilities in Cisco Firewall Services Module (FWSM) for the Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series and Cisco 7600 Series:

Cisco FWSM is prone to a buffer overrun vulnerability when handling HTTP Auth data. This would most likely result in a denial of service but could also potentially allow for arbitrary code execution (though this has not been confirmed).

Cisco FWSM has also been reported to be prone to denial of service attacks via SNMPv3 messages. This will cause a vulnerable device to reboot.

Both of these issues have been addressed in FWSM 1.1.3 and later for affected devices.
