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-2023-20176 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Cisco Aironet Access Point 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-2023-20176/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-20176/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-20176","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-20176/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-20176","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-68hh-p8m2-hpx3"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cisco Access Point","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An unauthenticated remote attacker can cause a denial of service on Cisco access points by sending high-rate traffic to disrupt DTLS sessions.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"cisco","cpe":[{"product":"catalyst_9124_firmware","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"catalyst_9130_firmware","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"catalyst_9136_firmware","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"catalyst_9164_firmware","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"catalyst_9166_firmware","vendor":"cisco"}],"cvss":{"score":5.8,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-400","name":"Uncontrolled Resource Consumption"}],"description":"A vulnerability in the networking component of Cisco access point (AP) software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a temporary disruption of service.\r\n\r This vulnerability is due to overuse of AP resources. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by connecting to an AP on an affected device as a wireless client and sending a high rate of traffic over an extended period of time.
