Cisco Releases Security Advisory for IOS Software Vulnerabilities
Cisco has released a security
advisory to address multiple vulnerabilities in IOS Software.
Exploitation of these vulnerabilities may allow an attacker to cause a
denial-of-service condition when handling specific Border Gateway
Protocol (BGP) updates. The advisory indicates that these
vulnerabilities affect only Cisco IOS
Software with support for four-octet AS number space and BGP routing
configured.
US-CERT encourages users and administrators to review Cisco Security Advisory cisco-sa-20090729-bgp and apply any necessary updates to help mitigate the risks.
