"A vulnerability in the TCP processing engine of Cisco Adaptive
Security Appliance (ASA) Software and Cisco Firepower Threat Defense
(FTD) Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to
cause an affected device to reload, resulting in a denial of service
(DoS) condition. The vulnerability is due to the improper handling of
TCP traffic. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a
specific sequence of packets at a high rate through an affected
device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to temporarily
disrupt traffic through the device while it reboots.
