Severity ?
5.8 (Medium) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:L
Summary
A vulnerability in the networking component of Cisco access point (AP) software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a temporary disruption of service. This vulnerability is due to overuse of AP resources. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by connecting to an AP on an affected device as a wireless client and sending a high rate of traffic over an extended period of time. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause the Datagram TLS (DTLS) session to tear down and reset, causing a denial of service (DoS) condition.

Un exploit exitoso podría permitir al atacante provocar que la sesión de Datagram TLS (DTLS) se interrumpa y se reinicie, provocando una condición de denegación de servicio (DoS).\"}],\"metrics\":{\"cvssMetricV31\":[{\"source\":\"ykramarz@cisco.com\",\"type\":\"Secondary\",\"cvssData\":{\"version\":\"3.1\",\"vectorString\":\"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:L\",\"baseScore\":5.8,\"baseSeverity\":\"MEDIUM\",\"attackVector\":\"NETWORK\",\"attackComplexity\":\"LOW\",\"privilegesRequired\":\"NONE\",\"userInteraction\":\"NONE\",\"scope\":\"CHANGED\",\"confidentialityImpact\":\"NONE\",\"integrityImpact\":\"NONE\",\"availabilityImpact\":\"LOW\"},\"exploitabilityScore\":3.9,\"impactScore\":1.4},{\"source\":\"nvd@nist.gov\",\"type\":\"Primary\",\"cvssData\":{\"version\":\"3.1\",\"vectorString\":\"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:H\",\"baseScore\":8.6,\"baseSeverity\":\"HIGH\",\"attackVector\":\"NETWORK\",\"attackComplexity\":\"LOW\",\"privilegesRequired\":\"NONE\",\"userInteraction\":\"NONE\",\"scope\":\"CHANGED\",\"confidentialityImpact\":\"NONE\",\"integrityImpact\":\"NONE\",\"availabilityImpact\":\"HIGH\"},\"exploitabilityScore\":3.9,\"impactScore\":4.0}]},\"weaknesses\":[{\"source\":\"ykramarz@cisco.com\",\"type\":\"Secondary\",\"description\":[{\"lang\":\"en\",\"value\":\"CWE-400\"}]},{\"source\":\"nvd@nist.gov\",\"type\":\"Primary\",\"description\":[{\"lang\":\"en\",\"value\":\"CWE-400\"}]}],\"configurations\":[{\"operator\":\"AND\",\"nodes\":[{\"operator\":\"OR\",\"negate\":false,\"cpeMatch\":[{\"vulnerable\":true,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:o:cisco:catalyst_9166_firmware:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"versionEndExcluding\":\"17.6.6\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"C9E58B3F-A839-40D2-94E8-DBBA4233CB6A\"}]},{\"operator\":\"OR\",\"negate\":false,\"cpeMatch\":[{\"vulnerable\":false,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:h:cisco:catalyst_9166:-:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"774AEB3E-5D6A-4E66-B0B4-C014A7C180E6\"}]}]},{\"operator\":\"AND\",\"nodes\":[{\"operator\":\"OR\",\"negate\":false,\"cpeMatch\":[{\"vulnerable\":true,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:o:cisco:catalyst_9164_firmware:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"versionEndExcluding\":\"17.6.6\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"674A6482-211F-43C7-BB67-4B0DBEB08E2F\"}]},{\"operator\":\"OR\",\"negate\":false,\"cpeMatch\":[{\"vulnerable\":false,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:h:cisco:catalyst_9164:-:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"96E81F0A-5B5C-4DD3-A56F-C7BF53D4B070\"}]}]},{\"operator\":\"AND\",\"nodes\":[{\"operator\":\"OR\",\"negate\":false,\"cpeMatch\":[{\"vulnerable\":true,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:o:cisco:catalyst_9136_firmware:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"versionEndExcluding\":\"17.6.6\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"02DBA4EC-6404-467A-A862-5CF3704CA8CF\"}]},{\"operator\":\"OR\",\"negate\":false,\"cpeMatch\":[{\"vulnerable\":false,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:h:cisco:catalyst_9136:-:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"09185C81-6FDF-4E6D-B8F7-E4B5D77909F4\"}]}]},{\"operator\":\"AND\",\"nodes\":[{\"operator\":\"OR\",\"negate\":false,\"cpeMatch\":[{\"vulnerable\":true,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:o:cisco:catalyst_9130_firmware:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"versionEndExcluding\":\"17.6.6\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"396ED75A-FF33-4AE5-BE9F-DBFD111532CF\"}]},{\"operator\":\"OR\",\"negate\":false,\"cpeMatch\":[{\"vulnerable\":false,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:h:cisco:catalyst_9130:-:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"E1C8E35A-5A9B-4D56-A753-937D5CFB5B19\"}]}]},{\"operator\":\"AND\",\"nodes\":[{\"operator\":\"OR\",\"negate\":false,\"cpeMatch\":[{\"vulnerable\":true,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:o:cisco:catalyst_9124_firmware:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"versionEndExcluding\":\"17.6.6\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"51EEDFEA-1E40-471B-8B2E-363C248F816E\"}]},{\"operator\":\"OR\",\"negate\":false,\"cpeMatch\":[{\"vulnerable\":false,\"criteria\":\"cpe:2.3:h:cisco:catalyst_9124:-:*:*:*:*:*:*:*\",\"matchCriteriaId\":\"C11EF240-7599-4138-B7A7-17E4479F5B83\"}]}]}],\"references\":[{\"url\":\"https://sec.cloudapps.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/cisco-sa-click-ap-dos-wdcXkvnQ\",\"source\":\"ykramarz@cisco.com\",\"tags\":[\"Vendor Advisory\"]},{\"url\":\"https://sec.cloudapps.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/cisco-sa-click-ap-dos-wdcXkvnQ\",\"source\":\"af854a3a-2127-422b-91ae-364da2661108\",\"tags\":[\"Vendor Advisory\"]}]}}",
