An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-15369 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Cisco Ios. 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-2018-15369/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-15369/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-15369","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-15369/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-15369","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-cfgw-ch55-2g87"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cisco IOS","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An unauthenticated remote attacker can cause a Cisco IOS device to reload by injecting crafted TACACS+ packets, resulting in a denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"cisco","cpe":[{"product":"ios","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"ios_xe","vendor":"cisco"}],"cvss":{"score":6.8,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"A vulnerability in the TACACS+ client subsystem of Cisco IOS Software and Cisco IOS XE Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause an affected device to reload, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition. The vulnerability is due to improper handling of crafted TACACS+ response packets by the affected software. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by injecting a crafted TACACS+ packet into an existing TACACS+ session between an affected device and a TACACS+ server or by impersonating a known, valid TACACS+ server and sending a crafted TACACS+ packet to an affected device when establishing a connection to the device. To exploit this vulnerability by using either method, the attacker must know the shared TACACS+ secret and the crafted packet must be sent in response to a TACACS+ request from a TACACS+ client. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause the affected device to reload, resulting in a DoS condition.","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":"Cisco IOS and IOS XE Software TACACS+ Client Denial of Service Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2018-15369","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"cisco:ios","products":["cisco:ios","cisco:ios_xe"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Cisco Catalyst 6800 Series Switches ROM Monitor Software Secure Boot Bypass Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2018-15370"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cisco IOS XE Software Privileged EXEC Mode Root Shell Access Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2018-15368"},"products":["Cisco IOS Software"],"published":"2018-10-05","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Cisco IOS and IOS XE Software DHCP Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2017-12240","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2017-09-28"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Cisco IOS and IOS XE Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2017-3881","kev_date_added":"2022-03-25","published":"2017-03-17"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Cisco IOS, XR, and XE Software Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2018-0167","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2018-03-28"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Cisco IOS and IOS XE Software SNMP Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2017-6736","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2017-07-17"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Cisco IOS and IOS XE Software SNMP Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2017-6737","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2017-07-17"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Cisco IOS and IOS XE Software SNMP Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2017-6738","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2017-07-17"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Cisco IOS and IOS XE Software SNMP Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2017-6739","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2017-07-17"}],"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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-11-26","vendors":["Cisco"]},"summary":"An unauthenticated remote attacker can cause a Cisco IOS device to reload by injecting crafted TACACS+ packets, resulting in a denial of service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-15369/"}
