Summary

The Overlay Transport Virtualization (OTV) implementation in Cisco IOS XE 3.10S allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (device reload) via a series of packets that are considered oversized and trigger improper fragmentation handling, aka Bug IDs CSCup37676 and CSCup30335.

descriptionThe remote Cisco device is affected by a denial of service vulnerability due to improper processing of oversized Overlay Transport Virtualization (OTV) frames. An unauthenticated, adjacent attacker can exploit this, by sending a large number of oversized OTV frames requiring fragmentation and reassembly, to cause the device to reload, resulting in a denial of service condition.
