Vulnerabilities > CVE-2017-6648 - Unspecified vulnerability in Cisco Telepresence CE Software and Telepresence TC Software
Summary
A vulnerability in the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) of the Cisco TelePresence Codec (TC) and Collaboration Endpoint (CE) Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a TelePresence endpoint to reload unexpectedly, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition. The vulnerability is due to a lack of flow-control mechanisms within the software. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a flood of SIP INVITE packets to the affected device. An exploit could allow the attacker to impact the availability of services and data of the device, including a complete DoS condition. This vulnerability affects the following Cisco TC and CE platforms when running software versions prior to TC 7.3.8 and CE 8.3.0. Cisco Bug IDs: CSCux94002.

description | The remote host either is running Cisco TelePresence Codec (TC) that is version 7.2.x prior to 7.3.8 or is running Cisco Collaboration Endpoint (CE) software that is version 8.x prior 8.3.0. It is, therefore, affected by a denial of service vulnerability in the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) due to a lack of proper flow-control mechanisms within the software. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, by sending a flood of SIP INVITE packets, to cause the TelePresence endpoint to reload unexpectedly. |
