Security readout for executives and security teams
Under a specific Cisco Firepower configuration, traffic that should be blocked by file action policies may be allowed through. The issue depends on Intelligent Application Bypass using a drop percentage threshold, so exposure is configuration-specific rather than universal. Organizations are likely exposed only if they run Cisco Firepower System Software with file action policies and Intelligent Application Bypass configured with a drop percentage threshold. Treat this as a targeted but meaningful control-bypass risk. Prioritize environments where Firepower is expected to stop malicious files or enforce segmentation-sensitive inspection. Mitigation focus: Review Cisco advisory cisco-sa-20180418-fss2 for affected releases and fixed software guidance.; Check whether Intelligent Application Bypass uses a drop percentage threshold.; Review file action policies on affected Firepower deployments..

Protection Mechanism Failure
Protection Mechanism Failure represents a recurring weakness pattern that can create exploitable paths when design, validation, or implementation controls are missing.
