According to its self-reported version, Cisco IOS Software is affected by two denial of service (DoS) vulnerabilities the Login Enhancements (Login Block) feature due to an attempt to free an area of memory that has not been previously allocated. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can trigger a reload of an affected device, resulting in a DoS condition as follows:
By attempting to log in to an affected device via Secure Shell (SSH) or Telnet with invalid credentials multiple times. (CVE-2018-0179)
By attempting to log in to an affected device via Secure Shell (SSH) or Telnet with invalid credentials multiple times while the administrator modifies the ‘login block-for’ configuration. (CVE-2018-0180)
Please see the included Cisco BIDs and Cisco Security Advisory for more information.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
