Array index error in the Virtual Ethernet Module (VEM) kernel driver for VMware ESXi in Cisco NX-OS on the Nexus 1000V, when STUN debugging is enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (ESXi crash and purple screen of death) by sending crafted STUN packets to a VEM, aka Bug ID CSCud14825.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This vulnerability can crash VMware ESXi hosts using Cisco Nexus 1000V VEM when STUN debugging is enabled. The result is denial of service, not confirmed data theft or code execution. Business risk is concentrated in older virtualized environments still running this Cisco NX-OS/Nexus 1000V integration. Exposure appears limited to environments using Cisco Nexus 1000V VEM on VMware ESXi with STUN debugging enabled. The provided sources do not identify specific affected versions, default configuration state, or whether supported deployments still commonly use this component. Address during virtualization risk review, with higher urgency if Nexus 1000V remains in production. A successful attack could interrupt multiple workloads by crashing ESXi hosts, but the available evidence does not show active exploitation or broad default exposure. Mitigation focus: Review Cisco security notice CVE-2013-1210 for fixed software and workarounds.; Identify ESXi hosts using Cisco Nexus 1000V VEM.; Disable STUN debugging where it is not operationally required..
