An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted SNMP packet to the affected device.\u0026nbsp;\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThe vulnerability is due to a buffer overflow in the affected code area. The vulnerability affects all versions of SNMP (versions 1, 2c, and 3). The attacker must know the SNMP read only community string (SNMP version 2c or earlier) or the user credentials (SNMPv3). An exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary code and obtain full control of the system or to cause a reload of the affected system.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nOnly traffic directed to the affected system can be used to exploit this vulnerability."

Un atacante podr\u00eda explotar estas vulnerabilidades enviando un paquete SNMP creado a un sistema afectado por medio de IPv4 o IPv6. Solo el tr\u00e1fico dirigido a un sistema afectado puede ser usado para explotar estas vulnerabilidades. Las vulnerabilidades son debido a una condici\u00f3n de desbordamiento del b\u00fafer en el subsistema SNMP del software afectado. Las vulnerabilidades afectan a todas las versiones de SNMP: Versiones 1, 2c y 3. Para explotar estas vulnerabilidades por medio de SNMP Versi\u00f3n 2c o anterior, el atacante necesita conocer la cadena community de solo lectura de SNMP para el sistema afectado. Para explotar estas vulnerabilidades por medio de la versi\u00f3n 3 de SNMP, el atacante necesita tener credenciales de usuario para el sistema afectado. Todos los dispositivos que hayan habilitado SNMP y no hayan excluido expl\u00edcitamente las MIB u OID afectadas deben considerarse vulnerables. Identificaci\u00f3n de errores de Cisco: CSCve66540."
