CVE-2005-4499
Last modified
CVE-2005-4499 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The Downloadable RADIUS ACLs feature in Cisco PIX and VPN 3000 concentrators, when creating an ACL on the Cisco Secure Access Control Server (CS ACS), generates a random internal name for an ACL that is also used as a hidden user name and password, which allows remote attackers to gain privileges by sniffing the username from the cleartext portion of a RADIUS session, then using the password to log in to another device that uses CS ACS.. EPSS estimates a 1.97% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
