Summary
=======
A vulnerability in the Cisco Discovery Protocol (formerly known as CDP)
subsystem of devices running, or based on, Cisco NX-OS Software contain a
vulnerability that could allow an unauthenticated, adjacent attacker to create
a denial of service (DoS) condition.
The vulnerability is due to a failure to properly validate certain fields
within a Cisco Discovery Protocol message prior to processing it. An attacker
with the ability to submit a Cisco Discovery Protocol message designed to
trigger the issue could cause a DoS condition on an affected device while the
device restarts.
Cisco has released software updates that address this vulnerability. There are
no workarounds that address this vulnerability.
