According to its self-reported version, Cisco Small Business 200, 300, and 500 Series Switches are affected by a vulnerability in the web-based management interface due to improper validation of HTTP requests. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
