A vulnerability in Cisco AMP for Endpoints Mac Connector Software installed on Apple macOS 10.12 could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a kernel panic on an affected system, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition. The vulnerability exists if the affected software is running in Block network conviction mode. Exploitation could occur if the system that is running the affected software starts a server process and an address in the IP blacklist cache of the affected software attempts to connect to the affected system. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause a kernel panic on the system that is running the affected software, resulting in a DoS condition. Cisco Bug IDs: CSCvk08192.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This flaw can crash an affected Mac endpoint running Cisco AMP for Endpoints Mac Connector, causing denial of service. The known conditions are narrow: Apple macOS 10.12, Block network conviction mode, and a server process receiving a connection from an address in the product’s IP blacklist cache. Exposure appears limited to organizations still running the affected Cisco AMP Mac Connector on macOS 10.12 with Block network conviction mode enabled and endpoint-hosted server processes reachable by blacklisted IPs. Treat this as a targeted availability risk for legacy Mac endpoints, not a broad enterprise takeover issue. Prioritize if affected Macs host important workflows or services. Mitigation focus: Review Cisco advisory cisco-sa-20180801-fampmac for fixed versions or supported mitigations.; Inventory macOS 10.12 systems running Cisco AMP for Endpoints Mac Connector.; Identify hosts using Block network conviction mode..
