Systems with microprocessors utilizing speculative execution and branch prediction may allow unauthorized disclosure of information to an attacker with local user access via a speculative buffer overflow and side-channel analysis.

Systems with microprocessors utilizing speculative execution and speculative execution of memory reads before the addresses of all prior memory writes are known may allow unauthorized disclosure of information to an attacker with local user access via a side-channel analysis, aka Speculative Store Bypass (SSB), Variant 4.

The Smart Install client implementation in Cisco IOS 12.2, 15.0, and 15.2 and IOS XE 3.2 through 3.7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (device reload) via crafted image list parameters in a Smart Install packet, aka Bug ID CSCuv45410.
