CSCsu84868 c3845: Error mesg %SYS-2-BADSHARE: Bad refcount in datagram_done.

Symptom    Cisco 3845 experiences trackback error:

Aug 14 12:34:55.960: %SYS-2-BADSHARE: Bad refcount in datagram_done, ptr=7006C010, count=0, -Traceback= 0x61816650 0x60641BD0 0x60C27A80 Aug 17 16:51:45.739: %SYS-2-BADSHARE: Bad refcount in datagram_done, ptr=705985A4, count=0, -Traceback= 0x61816650 0x60641BD0 0x60C27A80

Conditions   The error message occurs on a router running the c3845-adventerprisek9_ivs_li-mz.124-15.T5 image.

Workaround   None.

CSCsy22826 VG224 sending incorrect ssType in 1+ node CUCM cluster.

Symptom    VG224 endpoint does not connect to callback destination, once the callback destination is idle.

Conditions   Multi node cluster and VG224 endpoint is registered with node other then the first node in the cluster.

Workaround   Have VG224 endpoints registered with first node.

Further Problem Description: The activation of the callback is successful. What fails is when the callback destination becomes idle again and the VG224 endpoint gets notified (ring). After the VG224 endpoint goes offhook, the system should automatically connect to the Callback destination.This does not happen and VG224 endpoint gets silence.

Resolved Caveats - Cisco IOS Release 12.4(20)YA2

•CSCsv04836

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 http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20090908-tcp24.shtml.

CSCsr16693

A series of TCP packets may cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on Cisco IOS devices that are configured as Easy VPN servers with the Cisco Tunneling Control Protocol (cTCP) encapsulation feature. Cisco has released free software updates that address this vulnerability. No workarounds are available; however, the IPSec NAT traversal (NAT-T) feature can be used as an alternative.

This advisory is posted at http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20090325-ctcp.shtml.

Note: The March 25, 2009, Cisco IOS Security Advisory bundled publication includes eight Security Advisories. All of the advisories address vulnerabilities in Cisco IOS Software. Each advisory lists the releases that correct the vulnerability or vulnerabilities in the advisory. The following table lists releases that correct all Cisco IOS Software vulnerabilities that have been published in Cisco Security Advisories on March 25, 2009, or earlier.

CSCsv38166

The server side of the Secure Copy (SCP) implementation in Cisco IOS software contains a vulnerability that could allow authenticated users with an attached command-line interface (CLI) view to transfer files to and from a Cisco IOS device that is configured to be an SCP server, regardless of what users are authorized to do, per the CLI view configuration. This vulnerability could allow valid users to retrieve or write to any file on the device's file system, including the device's saved configuration and Cisco IOS image files, even if the CLI view attached to the user does not allow it. This configuration file may include passwords or other sensitive information.

The Cisco IOS SCP server is an optional service that is disabled by default. CLI views are a fundamental component of the Cisco IOS Role-Based CLI Access feature, which is also disabled by default. Devices that are not specifically configured to enable the Cisco IOS SCP server, or that are configured to use it but do not use role-based CLI access, are not affected by this vulnerability.

This vulnerability does not apply to the Cisco IOS SCP client feature.

Cisco has released free software updates that address this vulnerability.

There are no workarounds available for this vulnerability apart from disabling either the SCP server or the CLI view feature if these services are not required by administrators.

This advisory is posted at the following link:

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20090325-scp.shtml.

CSCsu11522

A vulnerability exists in the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) implementation in Cisco IOS software that can be exploited remotely to cause a reload of the Cisco IOS device.

Cisco has released free software updates that address this vulnerability. There are no workarounds available to mitigate the vulnerability apart from disabling SIP, if the Cisco IOS device does not need to run SIP for VoIP services. However, mitigation techniques are available to help limit exposure to the vulnerability.

This advisory is posted at the following link:

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20090325-sip.shtml.

CSCsk64158

Symptom    Several features within Cisco IOS software are affected by a crafted UDP packet vulnerability. If any of the affected features are enabled, a successful attack will result in a blocked input queue on the inbound interface. Only crafted UDP packets destined for the device could result in the interface being blocked, transit traffic will not block the interface.

Conditions   Cisco has released free software updates that address this vulnerability.

Workaround   Workarounds that mitigate this vulnerability are available in the workarounds section of the advisory. This advisory is posted at the following link: http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20090325-udp.shtml.

CSCsk41593 PAK_SUBBLOCK error found when ping with >1500-byte over cellular inter.

Symptom    The following error occurs when a ping packet is sent or received:
PAK_SUBBLOCK_ALREADY: 2 -Process= "IP Input"

Conditions   Occurs when large ping packets (greater than 1500 bytes) are sent to back-to-back cellular interfaces with GRE tunneling enabled.

Workaround   Disable the <CmdBold>ip virtual-reassembly<noCmdBold> command on the cellular interface.

CSCso30142 Traceback due to channel-group configuration.

Symptom    Traceback is generated during boot up.

Conditions   This is caused when the channel-group serial interface is configured with ip-address or np- ip-address. This is specific to T1/E1 HWIC.

Workaround   None.

CSCso39750 router crashes at socket_inherit_fd after no ccm sccp.

CSCso39964 QoS:router hangs while removing class-map.

Symptom    The router hangs when attempts are made to modify pure ACL configuration while traffic is still flowing.

Conditions   Occurs on routers running Cisco IOS Release 12.4(15)T4. The router returns back to normal if the traffic is stopped.

Workaround   There is no workaround.

CSCso41513 helper-address triggers ARP for non directly connected server.

Symptom    When using the <CmdBold>ip helper-address<noCmdBold> command to forward directed broadcast, an incomplete ARP entry will be created for the helper-address configured even if it is not a directly connected subnet. This may break BOOTP forwarding to the DHCP server.

Conditions   The symptoms are observed in Cisco IOS Release 12.4(19) only. Cisco IOS Release 12.4(18) does not have this issue.

Workaround   Configure proxy-arp on the next hop device on the path to the DHCP server.

Alternate Workaround: Configure static ARP on the router for the helper-address pointing towards the next hop.

CSCso52548 parser breakage in crypto isakmp key <> CLI.

Symptom    crypto isakmp key cli parser mode breakage.

Conditions   crypto isakmp key <> cli.

Workaround   None.

Further information: Not service impacting. Only that, crypto isakmp key <0/6> ? option gives "% Ambiguous command" instead of WORD for (UNENCRYPTED/ENCRYPTED) password.

CSCso61743 Router crashes@stcapp_free_supported_codec_list when stop/start 
stcapp.

Symptom    Router crashes when stcapp is disabled, stcapp ccm-group is removed from configuration, and then stcapp is re-enabled.

Conditions   Occurs on Cisco 2691 and Cisco 3745 routers running Cisco IOS Release 12.4(15)T05. Can also occur on other platforms running this Cisco IOS release. Can also occur if stcapp is disabled and the user attempts to enable stcapp but stcapp fails to start for any reason.

Workaround   None.

CSCsq20970 ATM option missing, while configuring T1 controller for mode atm.

Symptom    On the 2432 platform UUT, the 'atm' option is missing in the 'mode' CLI when the T1 controller is being configured for ATM.

Conditions   The symptom is observed on the 2432 platform with a T1 controller.

Workaround   There is no workaround.

CSCsq91960 failed to delete vrf when it is 32 characters long.

Symptom    VRF may not get deleted if the VRF NAME size is 32 characters on a dual RP HA/SSO router.

Conditions   This symptom occurs when adding a VRF with 32 characters on a DUAL RP HA router. (In some releases a VRF name with more than 32 characters will get truncated to 32.) The following may occur:

•There may be a DATA CORRUPTION ERRMSG.

•While deleting this 32 character length VRF, VRF will fail to get deleted completely with an ERRMSG on active.

Workaround   There is no workaround.

CSCsq97697 No dialtone is heard when an outgoing call is made right after call 
disc.

Symptom    Sometimes dialtone is not heard when user disconnects the existing call and immediately makes another outgoing call via hookflash.

Conditions   Is seen when hookflash is used to disconnect the existing call and make an outgoing call.

Workaround   Do not use the hookflash button. Go onhook to disconnect the call, wait for a few seconds then go offhook to make a new outgoing call.

CSCsr06625 telephony-service command throws % Invalid input detected.

CSCsr27960 Traceback observed after configuring credential under sip-ua.

Symptom    Traceback observed when configuring credentials CLI under sip-ua.

Conditions   This happens when user configures credentials CLI with username length more than 32 characters.

Workaround   There is no workaround.

CSCsr68545 Error %DATACORRUPTION-1-DATAINCONSISTENCY when running ipsla with rtt.

Symptom    Error message occurs:
000302: Jul 24 13:00:13.575 CDT: %DATACORRUPTION-1-DATAINCONSISTENCY: copyerror -Traceback= 0x410FD1A4 0x41119DB0 0x41138324 0x41DE5714

Conditions   IP SLA configured with RTT.

Workaround   There is no workaround.

CSCsr74835 incorrect uses of sprintf() in tcp/telnet.c.

Symptom    Certain sprintf() calls in tcp/telnet.c are incorrect.

Conditions   They have the potential to overflow the destination buffers.

Workaround   snprintf() should be used with a bounding length of the size of the destination buffer.

CSCsr78883 Router console displays messages "Data corruption Data Inconsistency.

Symptom    There will be traceback on configuring mls qos cos pass-through dscp in supporting interface mode.

Conditions   Configuring mls qos cos pass-through dscp in the interface that supports the functionality.

Workaround   Currently the CLI is not supported in most network modules, and thus, is invisible to the users. If the CLI is supported, configure it as mls qos cos override | cos-value.

Further Problem Description: Due to the buffer overflow, there will be traceback when configuring the QoS in the supporting interface. Currently the CLI is not supported in most network modules, and is thus, invisible to the users.

CSCsr92741 TCP packets with zero fields misbehavior.

Symptom    When a TCP packet with all fields set to "zero" (at a tcp level) is sent to a remote router (whether using ipv4 and IPv6). The destination router (to which the destination IP belongs), will send a ACK/RST flag set TCP packet back to the source.

Workaround   CoPP, FPM and other mechanisms can be used to mitigate and protect against these packets.

CSCsu24050 Multiple PRC_NON_COMPLIANCE tracebacks found on configuring stcapp FAC.

CSCsu58305 c880 build breaks due to stricter compiler flags in the throttle branch.

CSCsu64215 ip tcp adjust-mss command results in packet loss for non-TCP traffic.

Symptom    Router may incorrectly drop non TCP traffic. TFTP and EIGRP traffic can be impacted as seen in CSCsv89579.

Conditions   Occurs when the <CmdBold>ip tcp adjust-mss<NoCmdBold> command is configured on the device.

Workaround   Disable <CmdBold>ip tcp adjust-mss<NoCmdBold> on all interfaces. Note that this may cause higher CPU due to fragmentation and reassembly in certain tunnel environments where the command is intended to be used.

CSCsv13562 Router crashes due to double free of ccb->call_info.origRedirectNumber.

Symptom    The router crashes due to double free scenarios. While handling 302 response, "ccb->call_info.origRedirectNumber" attempts a double free due to signaling forking.

Conditions   Running Call Manager Express.

Workaround   There is no workaround.

CSCsv54651 Crafted VTP packet could cause a crash.

Cisco's VTP protocol implementation in some versions of Cisco IOS and CatOS may be vulnerable to a DoS attack via a specially crafted VTP packet sent from the local network segment when operating in either server or client VTP mode. When the device receives the specially crafted VTP packet, the switch may crash (and reload/hang). The crafted packet must be received on a switch interface configured to operate as a trunk port.

Workaround   None.

This response is posted at http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sr-20081105-vtp.shtml

CSCsv84605 When phone is onhook, media shouldn't be handled.

Symptom    Reporting port hang. The symptom is that when the port is blocked, the underlying low layer (VPM, VTSP) is already in clean IDLE state, but STCAPP keeps itself in the REM_ONHOOK_PEND -> CONNECTING -> ACTIVE_PENDING -> ONHOOK_PEND -> REM_ONHOOK_PEND loop.

Conditions   When STCAPP is used for analog phones through CCM control. CCM is 6.1.1. STCAPP version is 12.4(20)YA1. The fix will go into 12.4(22)T.

Workaround   None.
