Summary

Cisco IOS after 12.3(14)T, 12.3(8)YC1, 12.3(8)YG, and 12.4, with voice support and without Session Initiated Protocol (SIP) configured, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) by sending a crafted packet to port 5060/UDP.

    descriptionCisco devices running an affected version of Internetwork Operating System (IOS) which supports Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) are affected by a vulnerability that may lead to a reload of the device when receiving a specific series of packets destined to port 5060. This issue is compounded by a related bug which allows traffic to TCP 5060 and UDP port 5060 on devices not configured for SIP. There are no known instances of intentional exploitation of this issue. However, Cisco has observed data streams that appear to be unintentionally triggering the vulnerability. Workarounds exist to mitigate the effects of this problem on devices which do not require SIP.
