The Cisco Wireless LAN Controller (WLC), Cisco Catalyst 6500 Wireless Services Module (WiSM), and Cisco Catalyst 3750 Integrated Wireless LAN Controller with software 4.x before 4.2.176.0 and 5.x before 5.2 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (web authentication outage or device reload) via unspecified network traffic, as demonstrated by a vulnerability scanner.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This older Cisco wireless controller flaw can let remote network traffic disrupt wireless web authentication or reload the controller. The practical business impact is availability: users may lose wireless access or be unable to authenticate. The evidence does not show data theft or code execution. Exposure is most likely in organizations still running legacy Cisco wireless controller software in the affected 4.x or 5.x ranges. Internet exposure is not required if attacker traffic can reach the controller or relevant wireless management/authentication paths. Prioritize remediation where affected controllers support production wireless access, guest access, or critical operational sites. The issue is availability-focused, but wireless authentication outages can create visible business disruption. Legacy systems below the fixed versions should be upgraded or retired. Mitigation focus: Upgrade affected 4.x systems to 4.2.176.0 or later.; Upgrade affected 5.x systems to 5.2 or later.; Check Cisco advisory guidance for supported upgrade paths..
