A vulnerability in the web services interface of Cisco Secure Firewall Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Software and Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense (FTD) Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a buffer overflow on an affected system. This vulnerability is due to insufficient boundary checks for specific data that is provided to the web services interface of an affected system. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted HTTP request to the affected system. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause a buffer overflow condition on the affected system, which could cause the system to reload, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition.
