Cisco Identity Services Engine Active Directory Integration Component Denial of Service Vulnerability

A vulnerability in the Active Directory integration component of Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability is due to improper handling of Password Authentication Protocol (PAP) authentication requests when ISE is configured with an authorization policy based on Active Directory group membership. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by crafting a special but formally correct PAP authentication request that will trigger the issue.

Cisco Identity Services Engine software release 1.2(1.199)

Checks if a vulnerable version is present on the target host.
