The SNMP implementation in Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Software 8.4(7) and 8.6(1.2) allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (device reload) by sending many SNMP requests during a time of high network traffic, aka Bug ID CSCul02601.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This vulnerability can make certain Cisco ASA firewalls reload when authenticated SNMP users send heavy SNMP request volume during already high network traffic. A reload can interrupt firewall services and affect network availability. The source bundle does not provide CVSS scoring or confirmed fixed releases. Exposure is most likely where affected Cisco ASA versions have SNMP enabled and reachable by users or systems with valid SNMP authentication. Internet exposure is not established by the bundle. Treat as an availability risk for legacy Cisco ASA deployments. Prioritize review where firewalls protect critical sites or remote access, especially if SNMP is broadly reachable. Mitigation focus: Check Cisco advisory 39611 for fixed releases or official mitigations.; Upgrade affected ASA software if Cisco guidance identifies a corrected release.; Restrict SNMP access to trusted management systems only..
