Multiple vulnerabilities were reported in Cisco IOS XR. A remote user can cause denial of service conditions.

 

A remote user can send a specially crafted RSVP packet to cause the target RSVP process to reload, a specially crafted SNMPv2 packet to cause the target snmpd process to reload, or a specially crafted TACACS+ packet to cause the target TACACS+ process to reload.

 

A remote user on the local network can send a specially crafted MPLS packet to the target Cisco Network Convergence System 6000 Series Router to cause a network processor unit and line card to lockup and reload.
