Title:	Cisco IOS XR Software Malformed RSVP Packet Denial of Service Vulnerability
Summary:	A vulnerability in RSVP processing of Cisco IOS XR could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a reload of the RSVP process on the affected device.;;The vulnerability is due to improper parsing of a malformed RSVP packet. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a malformed RSVP packet to be processed by an affected device. An exploit could allow the attacker to cause a reload of the RSVP process on the affected device.;;Cisco has confirmed the vulnerability and released software updates.;;;To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker may need access to trusted, internal networks behind a firewall to send numerous TCP sessions to the targeted device. This access requirement may reduce the likelihood of a successful exploit.
