description | According to its self-reported version, the remote Cisco Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) device is affected by multiple vulnerabilities : - A denial of service vulnerability exists in the traffic streams metrics (TSM) implementation using Inter-Access Point Protocol (IAPP). An unauthenticated, adjacent attacker can exploit this to cause a device restart by sending specially crafted IAPP packets which are subsequently followed by an SNMP request for TSM information. (CVE-2016-6375) - A denial of service vulnerability exists in the Cisco Adaptive Wireless Intrusion Prevention System (wIPS) implementation due to improper validation of wIPS packets. An unauthenticated, adjacent attacker can exploit this, via specially crafted wIPS packets, to cause the device to restart. (CVE-2016-6376) |
