Security readout for executives and security teams
CVE-2012-1312 is a Cisco IOS availability flaw. A remote attacker could make an affected device reload by sending crafted transit traffic through equipment using the MACE feature. Business impact depends on where these devices sit; edge or core router reloads can interrupt network service. Exposure is most likely where Cisco IOS 15.1 or 15.2 devices have MACE or related traffic optimization features enabled and process untrusted transit traffic. The bundle does not identify specific platforms, configurations, or CPEs. Handle through network infrastructure lifecycle and availability risk management. It is old and not KEV-listed, but affected routing devices in critical paths could cause material outage if left exposed. Mitigation focus: Review Cisco advisory cisco-sa-20120328-mace for affected configurations and fixed releases.; Inventory Cisco IOS 15.1 and 15.2 devices running traffic optimization or MACE features.; Prioritize remediation for internet-edge, WAN, and high-availability routing devices..
