Last modified
CVE-2010-4679 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Cisco Adaptive Security Appliances (ASA) 5500 series devices with software before 8.2(3) do not properly handle Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) connection failures, which allows remote OCSP responders to cause a denial of service (TCP socket exhaustion) by rejecting connection attempts, aka Bug ID CSCsz36816.. EPSS estimates a 1.13% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
