"According to its self-reported version, Cisco Firepower Threat Defense (FTD) Software is affected by a vulnerability.

  - A vulnerability in the IP geolocation rules of Snort 3 could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to 
    potentially bypass IP address restrictions. This vulnerability exists because the configuration for IP 
    geolocation rules is not parsed properly. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by spoofing an IP 
    address until they bypass the restriction. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to bypass 
    location-based IP address restrictions. (CVE-2023-20267)

Please see the included Cisco BID and Cisco Security Advisory for more information.");
