Beware the DHCP Dilemma: Is Your Cisco Firewall Vulnerable?
Is your Cisco firewall playing hide and seek with vulnerabilities? If it has the DHCP client feature enabled, it might be! Run some command-line magic to check, because empty output means your device is in the clear. Remember: No DHCP, no problem!
Hot Take:
Look who’s checking DHCP before swiping right! This Cisco vulnerability is like that friend who keeps asking for a Wi-Fi password at every party. If your firewall’s got commitment issues with DHCP, it might just crash the party altogether!
Key Points:
- Devices affected are those with the DHCP client feature enabled on Cisco Secure Firewall ASA or Secure FTD Software.
- Vulnerability impacts only data interfaces, leaving the management interface unscathed.
- To check for vulnerability, specific command-line queries can determine DHCP configuration.
- Cisco has identified Fixed Software versions to address the vulnerability.
- Management interfaces remain the unsung heroes, unaffected by this vulnerability.
