"A vulnerability in the rate limiter for Bidirectional Forwarding
Detection (BFD) traffic of Cisco NX-OS Software for Cisco Nexus 9000
Series Switches could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to
cause BFD traffic to be dropped on an affected device. This
vulnerability is due to a logic error in the BFD rate limiter
functionality. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending
a crafted stream of traffic through the device. A successful exploit
could allow the attacker to cause BFD traffic to be dropped, resulting
in BFD session flaps. BFD session flaps can cause route instability
and dropped traffic, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition.
This vulnerability applies to both IPv4 and IPv6 traffic.

This plugin only works with Tenable.ot.
