It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-20213 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Cisco Identity Services Engine. 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-2023-20213/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-20213/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-20213","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-20213/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-20213","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-wrrj-56x5-rfqr"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cisco Identity Services Engine","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An unauthenticated adjacent attacker can crash the CDP process on Cisco ISE by sending crafted traffic, requiring manual restart to restore neighbor discovery.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"cisco","cpe":[{"product":"identity_services_engine","vendor":"cisco"}],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-787","name":"Out-of-bounds Write"}],"description":"A vulnerability in the CDP processing feature of Cisco ISE could allow an unauthenticated, adjacent attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition of the CDP process on an affected device. This vulnerability is due to insufficient bounds checking when an affected device processes CDP traffic. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending crafted CDP traffic to the device. A successful exploit could cause the CDP process to crash, impacting neighbor discovery and the ability of Cisco ISE to determine the reachability of remote devices. After a crash, the CDP process must be manually restarted using the cdp enable command in interface configuration mode.","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 Identity Services Engine Software","id":"CVE-2023-20213","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"cisco:identity_services_engine","products":["cisco:identity_services_engine"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Auth bypass in Cisco SD-WAN vManage","id":"CVE-2023-20214"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in Cisco Secure Endpoint","id":"CVE-2023-20212"},"products":["Cisco Identity Services Engine Software"],"published":"2023-11-01","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Cisco Identity Services Engine Incorrect Use of Privileged APIs","id":"CVE-2026-76460","kev_date_added":"2026-09-16","published":"2026-09-16"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Cisco Identity Services Engine Injection","id":"CVE-2025-20337","kev_date_added":"2025-07-28","published":"2025-07-16"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Cisco Identity Services Engine Injection","id":"CVE-2025-20281","kev_date_added":"2025-07-28","published":"2025-06-25"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Cisco Identity Services Engine Hardening Release - Improper Neutralization Vulnerabilities","id":"CVE-2026-20130","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-09-16"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Cisco Identity Services Engine Hardening Release - Access Control Vulnerabilities","id":"CVE-2026-20192","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-09-16"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Cisco ISE API Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-20282","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-06-25"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-3290","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-09-21"}],"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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-06-12","vendors":["Cisco"]},"summary":"An unauthenticated adjacent attacker can crash the CDP process on Cisco ISE by sending crafted traffic, requiring manual restart to restore neighbor discovery.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-20213/"}
