A vulnerability in the Cisco Discovery Protocol implementation for the Cisco IP Phone could allow an unauthenticated, adjacent malicious user to remotely execute code with root privileges or cause a reload of an affected IP phone. The vulnerability is due to missing checks when processing Cisco Discovery Protocol messages. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted Cisco Discovery Protocol packet to the targeted IP phone. A successful exploit could allow the malicious user to remotely execute code with root privileges or cause a reload of an affected IP phone, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition. Cisco Discovery Protocol is a Layer 2 protocol. To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker must be in the same broadcast domain as the affected device (Layer 2 adjacent).

Researchers on Wednesday disclosed five critical vulnerabilities in Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP), the Cisco Proprietary Layer 2 network protocol that is used to discover information about locally attached Cisco equipment.
Researchers say that the vulnerabilities, which they collectively call CDPwn, can allow attackers to remotely take over millions of devices. The flaws specifically exist in the parsing of CDP packets, in the protocol implementation for various Cisco products, from its s...
Cisco is issuing patches for five critical vulnerabilities that have been discovered in Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP), the info-sharing layer that maps all Cisco equipment on a network.
Researchers at Armis say that the vulnerabilities, which they disclosed on Wednesday and collectively dubbed CDPwn, can allow attackers with an existing foothold in the network to break through network segmentation efforts and remotely take over millions of devices.
CDP is a Cisco proprietary Layer 2...
