Cisco 12000 with IOS 12.0 and line cards based on Engine 2 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) by flooding the router with traffic that generates a large number of ICMP Unreachable replies.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old Cisco core-router denial-of-service issue. A remote traffic flood can force affected Cisco 12000 routers to spend excessive CPU generating ICMP Unreachable replies, potentially disrupting routing availability. The source bundle does not provide CVSS or confirmed exploitation. Exposure is likely limited to legacy Cisco 12000 environments matching IOS 12.0 and Engine 2 or earlier line cards, especially where untrusted traffic can reach routed interfaces. Treat this as a legacy infrastructure availability risk. It is not evidence of compromise, but affected edge or core routers could suffer service degradation if exposed to hostile traffic. Mitigation focus: Identify any Cisco 12000 routers still in service.; Check Cisco’s advisory for fixed IOS or supported configuration guidance.; Prioritize upgrade or retirement of matching legacy routers..
