According to its self-reported version, Cisco IOS XE Software is affected by a vulnerability in the HTTP server code.
This is due to a logical error in the HTTP server logging mechanism. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this by generating a large amount of long-lived connections to the HTTP service on the device, causing the HTTP server to crash.

Please see the included Cisco BID 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.
