Cisco TelePresence Collaboration Endpoint and RoomOS Software H.323 Denial of Service Vulnerability

CVSS 7.5 HIGHEPSS 1.3%CWE-1287
In short

A flaw in Cisco TelePresence and RoomOS devices allows attackers to crash or restart these video conferencing systems by sending specially crafted network traffic, without needing any password or authentication.

Technical detail

Insufficient input validation in H.323 packet processing allows unauthenticated remote attackers to send malformed H.323 traffic that triggers device reboot or maintenance mode entry, resulting in denial of service. Attack requires no credentials and can be delivered over the network to affected endpoints.

Summary generated and translated by AI from the official description.
A vulnerability in the packet processing functionality of Cisco TelePresence Collaboration Endpoint (CE) Software and Cisco RoomOS Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on an affected device. This vulnerability is due to insufficient input validation. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending crafted H.323 traffic to an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause the affected device to either reboot normally or reboot into maintenance mode, which could result in a DoS condition on the device.
