Cisco Unified IP Phone Firmware

The Cisco Unified IP Phone 8945 with software 9.3(2) allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (device hang) via a malformed PNG file, aka Bug ID CSCud04270.

A vulnerability in the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) ingress packet processing of Cisco Unified IP Phone software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition. The vulnerability is due to a lack of flow-control mechanisms in the software. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending high volumes of SIP INVITE traffic to the targeted device. Successful exploitation could allow the attacker to cause a disruption of services on the targeted IP phone. Cisco Bug IDs: CSCve10064, CSCve14617, CSCve14638, CSCve14683, CSCve20812, CSCve20926, CSCve20945.

The firmware on Cisco Unified IP phones 8961, 9951, and 9971 uses weak permissions for memory block devices, which allows local users to gain privileges by mounting a device with a setuid file in its filesystem, aka Bug ID CSCui04382.

Cisco Unified IP Phones 9900 series devices with firmware 9.1 and 9.2 do not properly handle downloads of configuration information to an RT phone, which allows local users to gain privileges via unspecified injected data, aka Bug ID CSCts32237.
