NASL idCISCO-SA-20010510-IOS-BGP-ATTR.NASL
descriptionA Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) UPDATE contains Network Layer Reachability Information (NLRI) and attributes that describe the path to the destination. An unrecognized transitive attribute can cause failures in Cisco IOS routers, ranging from a crash upon receipt of the unrecognized transitive attribute, to a later failure upon attempt to clear the unrecognized transitive attribute. Specific but common configurations are affected, and described below. The failure was discovered because of a malfunction in the BGP implementation of another vendor. There is no workaround. Affected customers are urged to upgrade to fixed code. This vulnerability has been assigned Cisco bug ID CSCdt79947.
