According to its self-reported IOS version, the remote device is affected by a denial of service vulnerability in the Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) packet processing code due to improper handling of malformed LLDP packets. An unauthenticated, adjacent attacker can exploit this, via specially crafted LLDP packets, to crash the device, resulting in a denial of service condition.
