Hi Everyone,
Global Knowledge is offering a free seminar on the new IPv4 DoS
vulnerability. I have been allowed to invite the GroupStudy members to the
seminar as I think some of you will find it interesting. Here is the
complete invite:
Foundstone Security Briefings:
Cisco IPv4 Remote Denial of Service Vulnerability
You're invited to a Special Web Seminar today covering this critical
vulnerability.
Earlier this week Cisco announced a serious vulnerability for all Cisco
devices that implement and are configured to process Internet Protocol
version 4 (IPv4) packets. Foundstone Labs, first to respond to this serious
risk, is offering this Security Briefing as part of a coordinated effort
designed to protect current customers and other organizations.
This vulnerability should be considered extremely critical due to the impact
and ease-of-exploitation. Devices are vulnerable to a Denial of Service
(DoS) attack and although no known exploit has been yet identified, a
complex purposely malicious sequence of IPv4 packets targeted to a
vulnerable Cisco switch or router can cause the processing interface to stop
processing traffic. This vulnerability can be executed by remote
unauthenticated users with mere knowledge of at least one interface IP
address.
