Exploitation of this vulnerability can lead to information leakage on affected IOS and IOS XR devices, and may also result in a crash of the affected IOS device. Successful exploitation on an affected device running Cisco IOS XR will not result in a crash of the device itself, but may result in a crash of the IPv6 subsystem. Cisco has made free software available to address this vulnerability for affected customers. There are workarounds available to mitigate the effects of the vulnerability. This advisory is posted at http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20070808- IOS-IPv6-leak.shtml. Note: The August 08, 2007 publication includes four Security Advisories and one Security Response. The advisories all affect IOS, one additionally affects Cisco Unified Communications Manager as well. Each advisory lists the releases that correct the vulnerability described in the advisory, and the advisories also detail the releases that correct the vulnerabilities in all four advisories. Individual publication links are listed below: Cisco IOS Information Leakage Using IPv6 Routing Header http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20070808-IOS-IPv6-leak.shtml Cisco IOS Next Hop Resolution Protocol Vulnerability http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20070808-nhrp.shtml Cisco IOS Secure Copy Authorization Bypass Vulnerability http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20070808-scp.shtml Voice Vulnerabilities in Cisco IOS and Cisco Unified Communications Manager http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20070808-IOS-voice.shtml Cisco Unified MeetingPlace XSS Vulnerability http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sr-20070808-mp.shtml Affected Products Vulnerable Products This vulnerability affects devices that are configured to use the IPv6 protocol and are running affected versions of one of the following types of software: Cisco IOS Cisco IOS XR To determine the software running on a Cisco IOS product, log in to the device and issue the show version command to display the system banner. Cisco IOS software will identify itself as "Internetwork Operating System Software" or simply "IOS." On the next line of output, the image name will be displayed between parentheses, followed by "Version" and the Cisco IOS release name. Other Cisco devices will not have the show version command, or will give different output. The following example shows output from a device running an IOS image: Router>show version Cisco IOS Software, 7200 Software (C7200-IK9S-M), Version 12.3(14)T1, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1) Technical Support: http://www.cisco.com/techsupport Copyright (c) 1986-2005 by Cisco Systems, Inc. Compiled Thu 31-Mar-05 08:04 by yiyanAdditional information about Cisco IOS release naming is available at the following link: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/iosswrel/ps1828/products_white_ paper09186a008018305e.shtml. To determine whether IPv6 is configured on an IOS device, look for the lines containing ipv6 in the Cisco IOS configuration, as shown in the following example: Router#show running-config | include ipv6 ipv6 address 2001:0DB8:C18:1::/64 eui-64If the configuration contains a line or lines similar to the above example, IPv6 is configured on the device. The exact IPv6 address will vary in your configuration. To determine whether IPv6 is configured on an IOS XR device, look for the following lines in in the Cisco IOS XR configuration: Router-IOS_XR#show ipv6 interface | include IPv6 IPv6 is enabled, link-local address is fe80::216:47ff:fee1:d987 IPv6 is disabled, link-local address unassigned IPv6 is disabled, link-local address unassignedIf the output contains at least one line that reads IPv6 is enabled, IPv6 is configured on the device. Products Confirmed Not Vulnerable No other Cisco products are currently known to be affected by this vulnerability. In particular, the following devices are known not to be affected: Cisco PIX and ASA Appliances Cisco Firewall Services Module (FWSM) Cisco MDS Cisco PIX, ASA, and FWSM firewall products do not process packets containing IPv6 Routing headers. All such packets will be silently dropped. Details Successful exploitation of the vulnerability described in this document may result in swapping memory between the destination IPv6 address in the IPv6 packet header and 16 bytes from the packet buffer memory. Memory that can be accessed through this vulnerability can not be further than 1500 bytes from the packet header start. This vulnerability is documented for Cisco IOS as Cisco Bug ID CSCef77013 ( registered customers only) and for Cisco IOS XR as Cisco Bug ID CSCsi74127 ( registered customers only) . Vulnerability Scoring Details Cisco is providing scores for the vulnerabilities in this advisory based on the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS). The CVSS scoring in this Security Advisory is done in accordance with CVSS version 1.0. Cisco will provide a base and temporal score. Customers can then compute environmental scores to assist in determining the impact of the vulnerability in individual networks. Cisco PSIRT will set the bias in all cases to normal. Customers are encouraged to apply the bias parameter when determining the environmental impact of a particular vulnerability. CVSS is a standards based scoring method that conveys vulnerability severity and helps determine urgency and priority of response. Cisco has provided an FAQ to answer additional questions regarding CVSS at http://www.cisco.com/web/about/security/intelligence/cvss-qandas.html. Cisco has also provided a CVSS calculator to help compute the environmental impact for individual networks at http://intellishield.cisco.com/security/alertmanager/cvss.

This can lead to the leakage of data from the buffer memory in the form of an IPv6 destination address and, in a worst case scenario for devices running Cisco IOS, a complete crash of the IOS device. Note: Given that the destination IPv6 address will contain the contents of a buffer memory, the packet may not get routed outside of the local network. Depending on the exact destination address the packet may get dropped by the next router or on the targeted router itself if it does not have route to the newly formed IPv6 address. In the case of Cisco IOS XR, successful exploitation will not crash the whole device but only lead to a restart of the IPv6 subsystem. Successful repeated exploitation of this vulnerability may lead to a sustained denial of service (DoS) of all upper layer services that use IPv6 as the transport protocol but not the whole device. Software Versions and Fixes When considering software upgrades, also consult http://www.cisco.com/go/psirt and any subsequent advisories to determine exposure and a complete upgrade solution. In all cases, customers should exercise caution to be certain the devices to be upgraded contain sufficient memory and that current hardware and software configurations will continue to be supported properly by the new release. If the information is not clear, contact the Cisco Technical Assistance Center ("TAC") or your contracted maintenance provider for assistance. Each row of the Cisco IOS software table (below) names a Cisco IOS release train. If a given release train is vulnerable, then the earliest possible releases that contain the fix (along with the anticipated date of availability for each, if applicable) are listed in the "First Fixed Release" column of the table. The "Recommended Release" column indicates the releases which have fixes for all the published vulnerabilities at the time of this Advisory. A device running a release in the given train that is earlier than the release in a specific column (less than the First Fixed Release) is known to be vulnerable. Cisco recommends upgrading to a release equal to or later than the release in the "Recommended Releases" column of the table.

Installation instructions are included in the accompanying .txt files. Workarounds The workaround consists of filtering packets that contain Type 0 Routing header(s). Special attention must be paid not to filter packets with Type 2 Routing headers as that would break a Mobile IPv6 deployment. Depending on which Cisco IOS software release is used, and if Mobile IPv6 is deployed, there are several potential workarounds. Because any packet type (TCP, UDP, ICMP) can be used to trigger this vulnerability, care must be taken when implementing a workaround to account for a spoofed IPv6 packet. For devices running Cisco IOS XR and have mobile IPv6 deployed, there is no workaround. For additional information about protection mechanisms against IPv6 Routing headers, reference the "Countermeasures for the Malicious Use of IPv6 Type 0 Routing Headers" Applied Intelligence white paper, available at http://www.cisco.com/web/about/security/intelligence/countermeasures- for-ipv6-type0-rh.html. Devices Running Cisco IOS Control Plane Policing The following example is applicable irrespectively if Mobile IPv6 is, or is not, deployed. Control Plane Policing (CoPP) can be used to block untrusted IPv6 packets with Type 0 Routing Headers present to the affected device. Cisco IOS software releases 12.0S, 12.2SX, 12.2S, 12.3T, 12.4, and 12.4T support the CoPP feature. CoPP may be configured on a device to protect the management and control planes to minimize the risk and effectiveness of direct infrastructure attacks by explicitly permitting only authorized traffic sent to infrastructure devices in accordance with existing security policies and configurations. The following example can be adapted to your network. !-- Permit all IPv6 Routing Header Type 0 (Source Route) packets !-- sent to any IPv6 address configured on interfaces of the !-- affected device or IPv6 link-local addresses. This traffic !-- will be policed and dropped by the CoPP feature. ! ipv6 access-list DENY-IPv6-RH0 permit ipv6 any any routing-type 0 ! !-- Permit (Police or Drop)/Deny (Allow) all other Layer3 and Layer4 !-- traffic in accordance with existing security policies and !-- configurations for traffic that is authorized to be sent !-- to infrastructure devices. ! !-- Create a Class-Map for traffic to be policed by the CoPP feature. ! class-map match-all drop-IPv6-RH0-class match access-group name DENY-IPv6-RH0 ! !-- Create a Policy-Map that will be applied to the Control-Plane of !-- the device. policy-map drop-IPv6-RH0-traffic class drop-IPv6-RH0-class drop ! !-- Apply the Policy-Map to the Control-Plane of the device. control-plane service-policy input drop-IPv6-RH0-traffic ! In the above CoPP example, the access control list entries (ACEs), which match the potential exploit packets with the "permit" action, result in these packets being discarded by the policy-map "drop" function. Additional information on the configuration and use of the CoPP feature can be found at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6642/products_white _paper0900aecd804fa16a.shtml and http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/ iosswrel/ps1838/products_feature_guide09186a008052446b.html. Mobile IPv6 is Not Deployed For IOS releases prior to 12.2(15)T, the workaround is to use ACLs to filter all packets that contain Routing headers. This method can not distinguish between Type 0 and Type 2 Routing headers, so it is not suitable if Mobile IPv6 is deployed. The following example shows how to configure such ACLs: Router(config)#ipv6 access-list deny-sourcerouted Router(config-ipv6-acl)#deny ipv6 any routing Router(config-ipv6-acl)#deny ipv6 any routing Router(config-ipv6-acl)#permit ipv6 any any Router(config-ipv6-acl)#exit Router(config)#interface Ethernet0 Router(config-if)#ipv6 traffic-filter deny-sourcerouted in In the above example is an IPv6 address. One example of such an address is 2001:DB8:900D::1/64. The ACL must be applied to all interfaces and include all IPv6 addresses that are configured. If an interface has more than one IPv6 address configured then all addresses must be covered by the ACLs. This also includes all loopback and link local addresses for each interface. The alternative to enumerating all IPv6 addresses is to use the statement deny ipv6 any any routing. While that simplifies the resulting ACL, it will also filter all transit IPv6 traffic with Routing headers 0 and 2. The example in which all configured IPv6 addresses are enumerated will not affect transit traffic. This is applicable to all other examples in this advisory. Starting from the IOS release 12.2(15)T, a new command, ipv6 source-route was introduced. If applied, it will drop any IPv6 packet with Type 0 Routing Headers received by the device itself (for example, IPv6 destination address matches any of the IPv6 addresses configured on the device). The command does not affects transit traffic. The configuration is given in the following example: Router(config)#no ipv6 source-route This is a global command and it applies to all interfaces. The command is applicable on all defined IPv6 addresses, including the link local and loopback address, and on all interfaces. Mobile IPv6 is Deployed There is no workaround for devices running a Cisco IOS release prior to 12.2(15)T. Starting from the IOS release 12.2(15)T, a new command, ipv6 source-route was introduced. If applied, it will drop any IPv6 packet with Type 0 Routing Headers received by the device itself (for example, IPv6 destination address matches any of the IPv6 addresses configured on the device). The command does not affects transit traffic. The configuration is given in the following example: Router(config)#no ipv6 source-route This is a global command and it applies to all interfaces. The command is applicable on all defined IPv6 addresses, including the link local and loopback address, and on all interfaces. In IOS 12.4(2)T, a new keyword routing-type is added to IPv6 ACLs. It can be used to selectively permit or deny specific routing types. Router(config)#ipv6 access-list deny-sourcerouted Router(config-ipv6-acl)#deny ipv6 any routing-type 0 Router(config-ipv6-acl)#permit ipv6 any any Router(config)#interface Ethernet0 Router(config-if)#ipv6 traffic-filter deny-sourcerouted in The above IPv6 ACL must be applied inbound on all interfaces on which an IPv6 address is configured. Devices Running Cisco IOS XR Mobile IPv6 is Not Deployed The workaround is to use ACLs to filter all packets that contain Routing headers. This method can not distinguish between Type 0 and Type 2 Routing headers, so it is not suitable if Mobile IPv6 is deployed. The following example shows how to configure such ACLs: Router-IOS_XR#configure terminal Router-IOS_XR(config)#ipv6 access-list deny-ipv6-type0-rh Router-IOS_XR(config-ipv6-acl)#deny ipv6 any host 2001:0DB8:12::3 routing Router-IOS_XR(config-ipv6-acl)#permit ipv6 any any Router-IOS_XR(config-ipv6-acl)#exit Router-IOS_XR(config)#interface GigabitEthernet 0/0/0/1 Router-IOS_XR(config-if)#ipv6 access-group deny-ipv6-type0-rh ingress Router-IOS_XR(config-if)#end The ACL must be applied to all interfaces and include all IPv6 addresses that are configured. If an interface has more than one IPv6 address configured then all addresses must be covered by the ACLs. This also includes all loopback and link local addresses for each interface. Mobile IPv6 is Deployed There is no workaround if Mobile IPv6 is deployed. Obtaining Fixed Software Cisco will make free software available to address this vulnerability for affected customers. This advisory will be updated as fixed software becomes available. Prior to deploying software, customers should consult their maintenance provider or check the software for feature set compatibility and known issues specific to their environment. Customers may only install and expect support for the feature sets they have purchased. By installing, downloading, accessing or otherwise using such software upgrades, customers agree to be bound by the terms of Cisco's software license terms found at http://www.cisco.com/public/sw-license-agreement.html, or as otherwise set forth at Cisco.com Downloads at http://www.cisco.com/public/sw-center/sw-usingswc.shtml. Do not contact either "psirt@cisco.com" or "security-alert@cisco.com" for software upgrades. Customers with Service Contracts Customers with contracts should obtain upgraded software through their regular update channels. For most customers, this means that upgrades should be obtained through the Software Center on Cisco's worldwide website at http://www.cisco.com. Customers using Third-party Support Organizations Customers whose Cisco products are provided or maintained through prior or existing agreement with third-party support organizations such as Cisco Partners, authorized resellers, or service providers should contact that support organization for guidance and assistance with the appropriate course of action in regards to this advisory. The effectiveness of any workaround or fix is dependent on specific customer situations such as product mix, network topology, traffic behavior, and organizational mission. Due to the variety of affected products and releases, customers should consult with their service provider or support organization to ensure any applied workaround or fix is the most appropriate for use in the intended network before it is deployed. Customers without Service Contracts Customers who purchase direct from Cisco but who do not hold a Cisco service contract and customers who purchase through third-party vendors but are unsuccessful at obtaining fixed software through their point of sale should get their upgrades by contacting the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC). TAC contacts are as follows. +1 800 553 2447 (toll free from within North America) +1 408 526 7209 (toll call from anywhere in the world) e-mail: tac@cisco.com Have your product serial number available and give the URL of this notice as evidence of your entitlement to a free upgrade. Free upgrades for non-contract customers must be requested through the TAC. Refer to http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/687/Directory/DirTAC.shtml for additional TAC contact information, including special localized telephone numbers and instructions and e-mail addresses for use in various languages.
