The TCP implementation in (1) Linux, (2) platforms based on BSD Unix, (3) Microsoft Windows, (4) Cisco products, and probably other operating systems allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (connection queue exhaustion) via multiple vectors that manipulate information in the TCP state table, as demonstrated by sockstress.

Cisco IOS 12.0 through 12.4 on Gigabit Switch Router (GSR) devices (aka 12000 Series routers) allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (device crash) via a malformed Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) packet.

Unspecified vulnerability in Cisco IOS 12.0 through 12.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (device reload) via a crafted Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) packet.

Stack-based buffer overflow in the Line Printer Daemon (LPD) in Cisco IOS before 12.2(18)SXF11, 12.4(16a), and 12.4(2)T6 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by setting a long hostname on the target system, then causing an error message to be printed, as demonstrated by a telnet session to the LPD from a source port other than 515.

The Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) feature for Cisco IOS 12.4XE to 12.3T allows remote attackers to bypass IPS signatures that use regular expressions via fragmented packets.

The ATOMIC.TCP signature engine in the Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) feature for Cisco IOS 12.4XA, 12.3YA, 12.3T, and other trains allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (IPS crash and traffic loss) via unspecified manipulations that are not properly handled by the regular expression feature, as demonstrated using the 3123.0 (Netbus Pro Traffic) signature.

Cisco IOS 9.x, 10.x, 11.x, and 12.x and IOS XR 2.0.x, 3.0.x, and 3.2.x allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code via a crafted IP option in the IP header in a (1) ICMP, (2) PIMv2, (3) PGM, or (4) URD packet.

Memory leak in the TCP listener in Cisco IOS 9.x, 10.x, 11.x, and 12.x allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by sending crafted TCP traffic to an IPv4 address on the IOS device.

Cisco IOS allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted IPv6 Type 0 Routing header.

Cisco IOS 12.2 through 12.4 before 20060920, as used by Cisco IAD2430, IAD2431, and IAD2432 Integrated Access Devices, the VG224 Analog Phone Gateway, and the MWR 1900 and 1941 Mobile Wireless Edge Routers, is incorrectly identified as supporting DOCSIS, which allows remote attackers to gain read-write access via a hard-coded cable-docsis community string and read or modify arbitrary SNMP variables.
