| Bug affected | Cisco 645 |
| Bug not affected | Other Cisco and network devices |
| Bug vulnerability class | Denial Of Service |
| Bug description | The Cisco 675 is vulnerable to a remote Denial of Service attack. An attacker may crash the device by sending the HTTP request "GET ?" to the HTTP port tcp/80 of the router. You need to reboot the device to make it work again. |
| Bug solution | Upgrade your Cisco firmware and filter incoming traffic on port tcp/80. As workaround (disabling the web service) you could add the rule "set web disabled", "write" and "reboot" into your device. |
