According to its self-reported version, Cisco IOS XE Software is affected by a denial of service (DoS) vulnerability in the Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) service for remote Secure Shell Host (SSH) connection. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, by attempting to authenticate to the target device, causing the device to stop responding.
Please see the included Cisco BIDs and Cisco Security Advisory for more information.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
