According to its self-reported version, the SSL/TLS session handler of Cisco Firepower Threat Defense (FTD) Software is affected by denial of service vulnerability due to a memory leak when closing SSL/TLS connections in a specific state. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this by establishing several SSL/TLS sessions and ensuring they are closed under certain conditions. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to exhaust memory resources in the affected device, which would prevent it from processing new SSL/TLS connections, resulting in a DoS. Manual intervention is required to recover an affected device.
Please see the included Cisco BID 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.
