Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2016-1385 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance Software. 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-2016-1385/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-1385/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-1385","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-1385/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-1385","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-r338-6h6j-v7p9"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cisco ASA firewall","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated attackers can cause denial of service on Cisco ASA devices by submitting crafted XML documents via admin or SSL VPN access.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"cisco","cpe":[{"product":"adaptive_security_appliance_software","vendor":"cisco"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-399","name":null},{"id":"CWE-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"The XML parser in Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Software through 9.5.2 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (instability, memory consumption, or device reload) by leveraging (1) administrative access or (2) Clientless SSL VPN access to provide a crafted XML document, aka Bug ID CSCut14209.","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-2016-1385","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"cisco:adaptive_security_appliance_software","products":["cisco:adaptive_security_appliance_software"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-1386"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-1384"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2016-05-26","related":[{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Cisco Secure Firewall Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) and Secure Firewall Threat Defense (FTD) Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2025-20333","kev_date_added":"2025-09-25","published":"2025-09-25"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) SNMP Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2016-6366","kev_date_added":"2022-05-24","published":"2016-08-18"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Cisco Secure Firewall Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) and Secure Firewall Threat Defense (FTD) Heap Inspection","id":"CVE-2026-20349","kev_date_added":"2026-08-11","published":"2026-08-11"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Cisco ASA and FTD Denial of Service","id":"CVE-2024-20353","kev_date_added":"2024-04-24","published":"2024-04-24"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) CLI Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2016-6367","kev_date_added":"2022-05-24","published":"2016-08-18"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Cisco ASA and FTD Read-Only Path Traversal","id":"CVE-2020-3452","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2020-07-22"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Cisco ASA and FTD Information Disclosure","id":"CVE-2020-3259","kev_date_added":"2024-02-15","published":"2020-05-06"}],"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":"2024-08-05","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Authenticated attackers can cause denial of service on Cisco ASA devices by submitting crafted XML documents via admin or SSL VPN access.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-1385/"}
