A vulnerability in the TCP throttling process of Cisco Prime Network could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on an affected device. The vulnerability is due to insufficient rate limiting protection for TCP listening ports. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending the affected device a high rate of TCP SYN packets to the local IP address of the targeted application. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause the device to consume a high amount of memory and become slow, or to stop accepting new TCP connections to the application. Cisco Bug IDs: CSCvg48152.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2018-0137 is an unauthenticated remote denial-of-service issue in Cisco Prime Network. A flood of TCP SYN packets can make the application consume high memory, slow down, or stop accepting new TCP connections. The provided sources do not include CVSS scoring, affected versions, or patch details. Exposure is limited to organizations running Cisco Prime Network with reachable TCP listening ports for the affected application. Risk increases if those ports are accessible from untrusted networks. The source bundle does not identify specific vulnerable versions or deployment configurations. Treat this as an availability risk to network management operations. It deserves timely validation and vendor-guided remediation, especially if Cisco Prime Network is reachable outside a tightly controlled management network. Mitigation focus: Check Cisco advisory guidance for affected releases and fixed versions.; Limit access to Cisco Prime Network application ports to trusted networks.; Use upstream network controls to reduce high-rate SYN exposure where appropriate..
