- Security updates for Cisco products-
Oxygen3 24h-365d, by Panda Software (http://www.pandasoftware.com)
Madrid, March 31, 2005- Cisco has published two security bulletins
informing of security problems that could allow a remote user to launch
denial of service attacks.
The first problem lies in Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series Switch devices and
Cisco 7600 Series Internet Router devices. These products could be affected
by a denial of service attack on receiving a malformed IKE (Internet Key
Exchange) packet. It is important to point out that this problem only
affects Cisco devices with IOS software and Crypto support.
Cisco VPN 3000 series concentrators are affected by a denial of service
problem on receiving a malicious SSL packet, which could cause the device
to reload or drop user connections.
Cisco has released fixes for both of these problems. The bulletins
published by Cisco are available at:
http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20050330-vpn3k.shtml and
