An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2012-6396 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Cisco Nx-Os. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-6396/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-6396/index.md)","id":"CVE-2012-6396","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-6396/index.md","name":"CVE-2012-6396","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8jxv-w855-pwmr"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cisco Nexus switch","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Remote authenticated users can cause a denial of service on Cisco Nexus 7000 switches by submitting crafted configurations referencing non-existent interfaces.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"cisco","cpe":[{"product":"nexus_7000","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"nexus_7000_10-slot","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"nexus_7000_18-slot","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"nexus_7000_9-slot","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"nx-os","vendor":"cisco"}],"cvss":{"score":4.9,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:H/Au:S/C:N/I:N/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-399","name":null}],"description":"Cisco NX-OS on Nexus 7000 series switches does not properly handle certain line-card replacements, which might allow remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a crafted configuration that references interfaces that do not exist on the new card, aka Bug ID CSCud44300.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-6396","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"cisco:nx-os","products":["cisco:nx-os"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2012"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-6397"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-6395"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2013-01-19","related":[{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-2469","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-08-06"},{"cvss_score":7.1,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-1191","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-05-24"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-1226","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2013-04-29"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-3051","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-09-16"},{"cvss_score":5,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-1122","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2013-02-13"},{"cvss_score":4.6,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-0684","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-05-07"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote authenticated users can cause a denial of service on Cisco Nexus 7000 switches by submitting crafted configurations referencing non-existent interfaces.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-6396/"}
