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-2020-3572 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance. 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-2020-3572/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-3572/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-3572","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-3572/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-3572","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-jq5v-m468-x8ph"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cisco ASA/FTD","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated remote attackers can cause a denial of service by exhausting memory through specific SSL/TLS session handling in Cisco ASA and FTD devices.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"cisco","cpe":[{"product":"adaptive_security_appliance","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"adaptive_security_appliance_software","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"secure_firewall_threat_defense","vendor":"cisco"}],"cvss":{"score":8.6,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-401","name":"Missing Release of Memory after Effective Lifetime"},{"id":"CWE-400","name":"Uncontrolled Resource Consumption"}],"description":"A vulnerability in the SSL/TLS session handler of Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Software and Cisco Firepower Threat Defense (FTD) Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on an affected device. The vulnerability is due to a memory leak when closing SSL/TLS connections in a specific state. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by establishing several SSL/TLS sessions and ensuring they are closed under certain conditions. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to exhaust memory resources in the affected device, which would prevent it from processing new SSL/TLS connections, resulting in a DoS. Manual intervention is required to recover an affected device.","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 Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Software","id":"CVE-2020-3572","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"cisco:adaptive_security_appliance","products":["cisco:adaptive_security_appliance","cisco:adaptive_security_appliance_software","cisco:secure_firewall_threat_defense"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2020"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Cisco Webex Network Recording Player and Cisco Webex Player Arbitrary Code Execution Vulnerabilities","id":"CVE-2020-3573"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cisco Firepower 4110 ICMP Flood Denial of Service Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2020-3571"},"products":["Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Software"],"published":"2020-10-21","related":[{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Denial of service in Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance Software","id":"CVE-2021-1573","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-01-11"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Denial of service in Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Software","id":"CVE-2021-34793","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-10-27"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Denial of service in Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Software","id":"CVE-2021-40117","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-10-27"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Denial of service in Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Software","id":"CVE-2021-40118","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-10-27"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Denial of service in Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Software","id":"CVE-2020-3304","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-10-21"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"File upload in Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Software","id":"CVE-2020-3436","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-10-21"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Denial of service in Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Software","id":"CVE-2020-3528","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-10-21"}],"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":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-11-13","vendors":["Cisco"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated remote attackers can cause a denial of service by exhausting memory through specific SSL/TLS session handling in Cisco ASA and FTD devices.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-3572/"}
