    Cisco Secure Firewall Adaptive Security Appliance and Secure Firewall Threat Defense Software Object Group Access Control List Bypass Vulnerabilities

    Share
    Multiple vulnerabilities in the access control list (ACL) Object Group Search (OGS) implementation of Cisco Secure Firewall Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Software and Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense (FTD) Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to bypass configured access controls. These vulnerabilities are due to a logic error in populating group access control policies (ACPs) with OGS configured. An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by sending traffic that should be blocked through the device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to bypass access controls and reach devices in protected networks. Cisco has released software updates that address these vulnerabilities. There are no workarounds that address these vulnerabilities.
