CVE-2010-2825: Affected product: security vulnerability

Recommended actionWithin 7 days

High technical severity; prioritise exposed affected systems while verifying vendor guidance.

Fix not verified

What, why and how

Unspecified vulnerability in the SIP inspection feature on the Cisco Application Control Engine (ACE) Module with software A2(1.x) before A2(1.6), A2(2.x) before A2(2.3), and A2(3.x) before A2(3.1) for Catalyst 6500 series switches and 7600 series routers, and the Cisco Application Control Engine (ACE) 4710 appliance with software before A3(2.4), allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (device reload) via crafted SIP packets over (1) TCP or (2) UDP, aka Bug IDs CSCta65603 and CSCta71569.

What

Why

The current structured CVE record identifies a security weakness, but the root cause requires confirmation in the linked vendor material.

How

An attacker operating through the affected interface may attempt exploitation when the stated preconditions are met. If successful, the issue may disrupt the affected service.

Exploit reality and attack path

CVSS severity, EPSS forecast probability, public exploit material and CISA-confirmed exploitation are separate signals.

Observed exploitation

Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.

No confirmed evidence

No CISA KEV match was present at the last successful refresh. This means no confirmation from that source, not proof of no exploitation.

Public PoC / exploit material

Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.

None recorded

No exploit-tagged reference or CISA SSVC proof-of-concept state is currently recorded. Research may still exist outside the structured feeds.

Likely attack path: the affected interface → vulnerable operation → disrupt the affected service
Attack surface: Unspecified
Privileges required: None: unauthenticated exploitation is possible
User interaction: Not stated in the selected CVSS metric
Attack complexity: Low: no specialised conditions are recorded
Security boundary: Not stated in the selected CVSS metric
Weakness ? CWE means Common Weakness Enumeration.: CWE not yet assigned
CVSS vector ? CVSS means Common Vulnerability Scoring System. The vector records the metric values used to calculate technical severity.: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C
Post-exploitation / living off the land: No specific living-off-the-land technique is confirmed in the structured sources. Monitor normal administration tools for activity inconsistent with the affected service's baseline.

Patch and workaround

Operational remediation based on structured source evidence.

Status ? Patch availability is based on structured fixed-version fields and authoritative update references. If no fix is verified, check the vendor advisory before making a change.: Fix not verified
Affected: n/a
Fixed: No fixed version is explicitly recorded in the structured CVE data.
Action: No verified patch reference is present in the current structured sources. Check the vendor advisory before making a change.
Workaround: No verified workaround is recorded. Limit untrusted access and use least privilege until authoritative guidance is available.
