Cisco ONS Platform Crafted Packet Vulnerability

The Cisco ONS 15300 series Edge Optical Transport Platform, the Cisco ONS 15454 Optical Transport Platform, the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Multiservice Platform, and the Cisco ONS 15600 Multiservice Switching Platform contains a vulnerability when processing TCP traffic streams that may result in a reload of the device control card. Cisco has released free software updates that address this vulnerability. There are no workarounds that mitigate this vulnerability. Several mitigation's exist that can limit the exposure of this vulnerability.
Successful exploitation of this vulnerability will result in a reset of the node's control card. Repeated attempts to exploit this vulnerability could result in a sustained DoS condition, dropping the synchronous data channels traversing the switch (Cisco ONS 15310-MA, ONS 15310-CL, ONS 15327, ONS 15454, ONS 15454 SDH) and preventing manageability functions provided by the network element control cards (all ONS switches) until the control card comes back online.
