Download CVRF

Summary

Multiple Cisco products are affected by denial of service (DoS) vulnerabilities that manipulate the state of Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) connections. By manipulating the state of a TCP connection, an attacker could force the TCP connection to remain in a long-lived state, possibly indefinitely. If enough TCP connections are forced into a long-lived or indefinite state, resources on a system under attack may be consumed, preventing new TCP connections from being accepted. In some cases, a system reboot may be necessary to recover normal system operation. To exploit these vulnerabilities, an attacker must be able to complete a TCP three-way handshake with a vulnerable system.

In addition to these vulnerabilities, Cisco Nexus 5000 devices contain a TCP DoS vulnerability that may result in a system crash. This additional vulnerability was found as a result of testing the TCP state manipulation vulnerabilities.

Cisco has released free software updates for download from the Cisco website that address these vulnerabilities. Workarounds that mitigate these vulnerabilities are available.
This advisory is posted at https://sec.cloudapps.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/cisco-sa-20090908-tcp24.

Affected Products

Vulnerable Products
The following Cisco products have a TCP implementation that is affected by these vulnerabilities. Refer to the Software Versions and Fixes section for information on fixed software.

Cisco IOS Software

To determine the Cisco IOS^® Software release that is running on a Cisco product, administrators can log into the device and issue the show version command to display the system banner. The system banner confirms that the device is running Cisco IOS Software by displaying text similar to "Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software" or "Cisco IOS Software." The image name displays in parentheses, followed by "Version" and the Cisco IOS Software release name. Other Cisco devices do not have the show version command or may provide different output.

The following example identifies a Cisco product that is running Cisco IOS Software Release 12.3(26) with an installed image name of C2500-IS-L:

Router#show version Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software IOS (tm) 2500 Software (C2500-IS-L), Version 12.3(26), RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc2) Technical Support: http://www.cisco.com/techsupport Copyright (c) 1986-2008 by cisco Systems, Inc. Compiled Mon 17-Mar-08 14:39 by dchih <output truncated>

The following example identifies a Cisco product that is running Cisco IOS Software Release 12.4(20)T with an installed image name of C1841-ADVENTERPRISEK9-M:

Cisco PSIRT tested Cisco products that are based on Linux and Microsoft Windows operating systems and found that although TCP connections in a FINWAIT1 state may temporarily consume system resources the operating systems eventually clear the TCP connections. If enough system resources are consumed, a sustained DoS condition may be possible. This outcome is highly dependent on the configuration and usage of a system. For more information about how these vulnerabilities affect Microsoft Windows operating systems, please consult the following Microsoft website at the following link:

http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=155978

No other Cisco products are currently known to be affected by these vulnerabilities.

Details

Multiple Cisco products are affected by DoS vulnerabilities in the TCP protocol. By manipulating the state of TCP connections, an attacker could force a system that is under attack to maintain TCP connections for long periods of time, or indefinitely in some cases. With a sufficient number of open TCP connections, the attacker may be able to cause a system to consume internal buffer and memory resources, resulting in new TCP connections being denied access to a targeted port or an entire system. A system reboot may be required to restore full system functionality. A full TCP three-way handshake is required to exploit these vulnerabilities.

Network devices are not directly impacted by TCP state manipulation DoS attacks transiting a device; however, network devices that maintain the state of TCP connections may be impacted. If the attacker can establish enough TCP connections through a transit device that maintains TCP state, device resources may be exhausted and prevent the device from processing new TCP connections, resulting in a DoS condition. If an affected device that forwards traffic (that is, routes) in a network is the target of a TCP state manipulation attack, the attacker could cause a network-impacting DoS condition.

Cisco IOS Software

All Cisco IOS Software versions are affected by this vulnerability. A device running Cisco IOS Software that is under attack will have numerous hung TCP connections in the FINWAIT1 state. The show tcp brief command can be used to display the hung TCP connections. The following is example output showing an attack in progress.
```
Router#show tcp brief | include FIN

```
The vulnerabilities for Cisco CatOS Software are documented in Cisco Bug ID CSCsv66169 ( registered customers only) .

Cisco ASA and Cisco PIX Software

Certain Cisco ASA and Cisco PIX Software versions are affected by these vulnerabilities. A device running Cisco ASA and Cisco PIX Software that is under attack will have numerous TCP connections in the established state. The show asp table socket command can be used to display the TCP connections. The following is example output showing a potential attack in progress.
```
FIREWALL# show asp table socket | grep ESTAB
TCP       123a8a6c  192.168.1.10:80           192.168.1.20:46181    ESTAB

TCP       1244f78c  192.168.1.10:80           192.168.1.20:40271    ESTAB
TCP       124f8d2c  192.168.1.10:80           192.168.1.20:46599    ESTAB
TCP       12507f2c  192.168.1.10:80           192.168.1.20:5607     ESTAB
```
It is possible for normal traffic to cause established TCP connections to appear on Cisco ASA or PIX devices, especially VPN connections terminated to the device. In order to confirm if established TCP connections are part of an attack, administrators should use a monitoring point outside the firewall such as a packet sniffer or Netflow collection agent to examine the profile of the suspicious TCP connections and determine if an attack is occurring.

Note: The show asp table socket command was introduced in Cisco ASA and Cisco PIX Software 8.0(1).

Further detail about hung TCP connections can be found with show conn detail all long command. The IP address used to qualify the example below is the address of the firewall interface under attack.
```
FIREWALL# show conn detail all long | grep 192.168.1.10
