Detection & IOCsextracted from sources · hover to see the quote

  • Detect crafted EAP-FAST packets targeting Cisco Secure ACS RADIUS service; monitor for malformed or unexpected user identity fields in EAP-FAST authentication exchanges
  • Alert on unauthenticated remote command execution attempts against Cisco Secure ACS 4.0 through 4.2.1.15 when configured as a RADIUS server; the attack vector is EAP-FAST user identity parsing (CWE-78 OS command injection)
  • Scope detection to environments where Cisco Secure ACS is configured as a RADIUS server — the vulnerability is NOT present in TACACS+-only configurations
  • ·Vulnerability is only exploitable when Cisco Secure ACS is configured as a RADIUS server; TACACS+-only deployments are not affected
  • ·Affected versions are Cisco Secure ACS 4.0 through 4.2.1.15; fixed in 4.2.1.15.11 and later
  • ·There are no workarounds available for this vulnerability; patching is the only mitigation
