The vulnerability is due to incomplete input validation of certain 802.11 management information element frames that an affected device receives from wireless clients. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a malformed 802.11 management frame to an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause the affected device to reload unexpectedly, resulting in a DoS condition. Cisco has released software updates that address this vulnerability. There are no workarounds that address this vulnerability. This advisory is available at the following link: https://tools.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/ cisco-sa-20180502-wlc-mfdos Affected Products o Vulnerable Products This vulnerability affects only Cisco Wireless LAN Controllers that are running Cisco Mobility Express Release 8.5.103.0. For information about which Cisco WLC Software releases are vulnerable, see the Fixed Software section of this advisory. Determining the Cisco WLC Software Release To determine which Cisco WLC Software release is running on a device, administrators can use the controller's web interface or the CLI. To use the web interface, do the following: 1. By using a browser, log in to the controller's web interface. 2. Click the Monitor tab. 3. Click Summary in the left pane. 4. Under Controller Summary, the Software Version field shows the release number of the software that is currently running on the device. To use the CLI, log in to the controller via Telnet, issue the show sysinfo command, and then refer to the value in the Product Version field of the command output. The following example shows the command output for a device that is running Cisco WLC Software Release 8.3.102.0: (wlc)> show sysinfo Manufacturer's Name.............................. Cisco Systems Inc. Product Name..................................... Cisco Controller Product Version.................................. 8.3.102.0 Bootloader Version............................... 1.0.1 Field Recovery Image Version..................... 6.0.182.0 Firmware Version................................. FPGA 1.3, Env 1.6, USB console 1.27 Build Type....................................... DATA + WPS . . . Determining the Cisco Mobility Express Software Release To determine which Cisco Mobility Express Software release is running on a device, administrators can use the web interface or the CLI of the device. To use the web interface, do the following: 1. By using a browser, log in to the web interface. 2. Choose System Software > Software Upgrade. 3. Refer to the value in the System Software Version field. To use the CLI, log in to the access point via a Telnet or SSH session, issue the show version command, and then refer to the command output. The following example shows the command output for a Cisco Aironet 1852i Access Point that is running Cisco Mobility Express Software Release 8.3.111.0: AP# show version cisco AIR-AP1852I-UXK9 ARMv7 Processor rev 0 (v71) with 997184/525160K bytes of memory.

Products Confirmed Not Vulnerable Only products listed in the Vulnerable Products section of this advisory are known to be affected by this vulnerability. Workarounds o There are no workarounds that address this vulnerability. Fixed Software o Cisco has released free software updates that address the vulnerability described in this advisory. Customers may only install and expect support for software versions and feature sets for which they have purchased a license. By installing, downloading, accessing, or otherwise using such software upgrades, customers agree to follow the terms of the Cisco software license: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/end-user-license-agreement.html Additionally, customers may only download software for which they have a valid license, procured from Cisco directly, or through a Cisco authorized reseller or partner. In most cases this will be a maintenance upgrade to software that was previously purchased. Free security software updates do not entitle customers to a new software license, additional software feature sets, or major revision upgrades. When considering software upgrades, customers are advised to regularly consult the advisories for Cisco products, which are available from the Cisco Security Advisories and Alerts page, to determine exposure and a complete upgrade solution. In all cases, customers should ensure that the devices to be upgraded contain sufficient memory and confirm that current hardware and software configurations will continue to be supported properly by the new release. If the information is not clear, customers are advised to contact the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) or their contracted maintenance providers. Customers Without Service Contracts Customers who purchase directly from Cisco but do not hold a Cisco service contract and customers who make purchases through third-party vendors but are unsuccessful in obtaining fixed software through their point of sale should obtain upgrades by contacting the Cisco TAC: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/web/tsd-cisco-worldwide-contacts.html Customers should have the product serial number available and be prepared to provide the URL of this advisory as evidence of entitlement to a free upgrade. Fixed Releases Customers should upgrade to an appropriate release as indicated in the table in this section. To help ensure a complete upgrade solution, consider that this advisory is part of a collection that includes the following advisories: ? cisco-sa-20180502-aironet-ssh: Cisco Aironet 1800, 2800, and 3800 Series Access Points Secure Shell Privilege Escalation Vulnerability ? cisco-sa-20180502-ap-ptp: Cisco Aironet 1810, 1830, and 1850 Series Access Points Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol Denial of Service Vulnerability ? cisco-sa-20180502-wlc-ip: Cisco Wireless LAN Controller IP Fragment Reassembly Denial of Service Vulnerability ? cisco-sa-20180502-wlc-mfdos: Cisco Wireless LAN Controller 802.11 Management Frame Denial of Service Vulnerability In the following table, the left column lists major releases of Cisco software.
