According to its self-reported version, Cisco Web Security Appliance (WSA) is affected by a denial of service (DoS) vulnerability due to improper validation of HTTP / HTTPS requests. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this issue, by sending malformed requests, to cause the application to temporarily stop responding.
