ICMP traffic that;should be denied may instead be allowed through an affected device.;;The vulnerability is due to the implementation of ACL-based filters for ICMP Echo Requests and the range of;ICMP Echo Request subtypes. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending ICMP Echo Request traffic;to an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to bypass ACL configurations for the;device, which could allow traffic that should be denied to instead be allowed through the device.;;Cisco has released software updates that address this vulnerability.
