This vulnerability is due to incomplete validation of the source of a received LLDP packet. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted LLDP packet on an SFP interface to an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to disable switching on the SFP interface, which could disrupt network traffic.", "severity": [ { "type": "CVSS_V3", "score": "CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:L" } ], "affected": [], "references": [ { "type": "ADVISORY", "url": "https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2021-1231" }, { "type": "WEB", "url": "https://tools.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/cisco-sa-apic-lldap-dos-WerV9CFj" } ], "database_specific": { "cwe_ids": [ "CWE-284", "CWE-346" ], "severity": "MODERATE", "github_reviewed": false, "github_reviewed_at": null, "nvd_published_at": "2021-02-24T20:15:00Z" } }
