Affected Products
=================
Devices that are running an affected version of Cisco IOS Software
and configured for Mobile IP NAT Traversal feature or Mobile IPv6 are
vulnerable.
Vulnerable Products
+------------------
Devices running Cisco IOS Software and configured for Mobile IP NAT
Traversal feature will have a line similar to the following in the
output of the show running-config command:
ip mobile home-agent nat traversal [...]
or
ip mobile foreign-agent nat traversal [...]
or
ip mobile router-service collocated registration nat traversal [...]
Devices running Cisco IOS Software and configured for Mobile IPv6
will have a line similar to the following in the output of the show
running-config command:
ipv6 mobile home-agent
To determine the Cisco IOS Software release that is running on a
Cisco product, administrators can log in to the device and issue the
show version command to display the system banner. The system banner
confirms that the device is running Cisco IOS Software by displaying
text similar to "Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software" or
"Cisco IOS Software." The image name displays in parentheses,
followed by "Version" and the Cisco IOS Software release name. Other
Cisco devices do not have the show version command or may provide
different output.
The following example identifies a Cisco product that is running
Cisco IOS Software Release 12.3(26) with an installed image name of
C2500-IS-L:
Router#show version
Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software
IOS (tm) 2500 Software (C2500-IS-L), Version 12.3(26), RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc2)

vulnerabilities.
Details
=======
Mobile IP is part of both IPv4 and IPv6 standards. Mobile IP allows a
host device to be identified by a single IP address even though the
device may move its physical point of attachment from one network to
another. Regardless of movement between different networks,
connectivity at the different points is achieved seamlessly without
user intervention. Roaming from a wired network to a wireless or
wide-area network is also possible.
More information on Mobile IPv6 can be found at the following link:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/ipv6/configuration/guide/ip6-mobile.html
The Mobile IP Support NAT Traversal feature is documented in RFC
3519. It introduces an alternative method for tunneling Mobile IP
data traffic. New extensions in the Mobile IP registration request
and reply messages have been added for establishing User Datagram
Protocol (UDP) tunneling. This feature allows mobile devices in
collocated mode that use a private IP address (RFC 1918) or foreign
agents (FAs) that use a private IP address for the care-of address
(CoA) to establish a tunnel and traverse a NAT-enabled router with
mobile node (MN) data traffic from the home agent (HA).
More information on Mobile IP NAT Traversal feature can be found at
the following link:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/12_3t/12_3t8/feature/guide/gtnatmip.html
Devices that are running an affected version of Cisco IOS Software
and configured for Mobile IPv6 or Mobile IP NAT Traversal feature are
affected by a DoS vulnerability. A successful exploitation of this
vulnerability could cause an interface to stop processing traffic
until the system is restarted. Offending packets need to be destined
to the router for a successful exploit.
These vulnerabilities are documented in the Cisco Bug IDs CSCsm97220
and CSCso05337 and have been assigned Common Vulnerabilities and
Exposures (CVE) IDs CVE-2009-0633 and CVE-2009-0634.
Vulnerability Scoring Details
Cisco has provided scores for the vulnerabilities in this advisory
based on the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS). The CVSS
scoring in this Security Advisory is done in accordance with CVSS
version 2.0.
CVSS is a standards-based scoring method that conveys vulnerability
severity and helps determine urgency and priority of response.
Cisco has provided a base and temporal score. Customers can then
compute environmental scores to assist in determining the impact of
the vulnerability in individual networks.
Cisco has provided an FAQ to answer additional questions regarding
CVSS at
http://www.cisco.com/web/about/security/intelligence/cvss-qandas.html
Cisco has also provided a CVSS calculator to help compute the
environmental impact for individual networks at
http://intellishield.cisco.com/security/alertmanager/cvss

Impact
======
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may result in an
interface to stop processing traffic, causing a DoS condition.
Software Versions and Fixes
When considering software upgrades, also consult
http://www.cisco.com/go/psirt and any subsequent advisories to
determine exposure and a complete upgrade solution.
In all cases, customers should exercise caution to be certain the
devices to be upgraded contain sufficient memory and that current
hardware and software configurations will continue to be supported
properly by the new release. If the information is not clear, contact
the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) or your contracted
maintenance provider for assistance.
Each row of the Cisco IOS software table (below) names a Cisco IOS
release train. If a given release train is vulnerable, then the
earliest possible releases that contain the fix (along with the
anticipated date of availability for each, if applicable) are listed
in the "First Fixed Release" column of the table. The "Recommended
Release" column indicates the releases which have fixes for all the
published vulnerabilities at the time of this Advisory. A device
running a release in the given train that is earlier than the release
in a specific column (less than the First Fixed Release) is known to
be vulnerable. Cisco recommends upgrading to a release equal to or
later than the release in the "Recommended Releases" column of the
table.

Workarounds
===========
The following mitigation and identification methods have been
identified for these vulnerabilities:
Infrastructure Access Control Lists
+----------------------------------
Although it is often difficult to block traffic that transits a
network, it is possible to identify traffic that should never be
allowed to target infrastructure devices and block that traffic at
the border of networks. Infrastructure Access Control Lists (iACLs)
are a network security best practice and should be considered as a
long-term addition to good network security as well as a workaround
for these specific vulnerabilities. The iACL example below should be
included as part of the deployed infrastructure access-list which
will protect all devices with IP addresses in the infrastructure IP
address range:
IPv4 example:
!--- Anti-spoofing entries are shown here.
!--- Deny special-use address sources.
!--- Refer to RFC 3330 for additional special use addresses.
access-list 110 deny ip host 0.0.0.0 any
access-list 110 deny ip 127.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 any
access-list 110 deny ip 192.0.2.0 0.0.0.255 any
access-list 110 deny ip 224.0.0.0 31.255.255.255 any
!--- Filter RFC 1918 space.
access-list 110 deny ip 10.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 any
access-list 110 deny ip 172.16.0.0 0.15.255.255 any
access-list 110 deny ip 192.168.0.0 0.0.255.255 any
!--- Deny your space as source from entering your AS.
!--- Deploy only at the AS edge.
access-list 110 deny ip YOUR_CIDR_BLOCK any
!--- Permit BGP.
access-list 110 permit tcp host bgp_peer host router_ip eq bgp
access-list 110 permit tcp host bgp_peer eq bgp host router_ip
!--- Deny access to internal infrastructure addresses.
access-list 110 deny ip any INTERNAL_INFRASTRUCTURE_ADDRESSES
!--- Permit transit traffic.
access-list 110 permit ip any any
IPv6 example:
!--- Configure the access-list.
ipv6 access-list iacl
!--- Deny your space as source from entering your AS.
!--- Deploy only at the AS edge.
deny ipv6 YOUR_CIDR_BLOCK_IPV6 any
!--- Permit multiprotocol BGP.
permit tcp host bgp_peer_ipv6 host router_ipv6 eq bgp
permit tcp host bgp_peer_ipv6 eq bgp host router_ipv6
!--- Deny access to internal infrastructure addresses.
deny ipv6 any INTERNAL_INFRASTRUCTURE_ADDRESSES_IPV6
!--- Permit transit traffic.
permit ipv6 any any
The white paper entitled "Protecting Your Core: Infrastructure
Protection Access Control Lists" presents guidelines and recommended
deployment techniques for infrastructure protection access lists.
This white paper can be obtained at the following link
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk648/tk361/technologies_white_paper09186a00801a1a55.shtml
Cisco IOS Embedded Event Manager
+-------------------------------
It is possible to detect blocked interface queues with a Cisco IOS
Embedded Event Manager (EEM) policy. EEM provides event detection and
reaction capabilities on a Cisco IOS device. EEM can alert
administrators of blocked interfaces with email, a syslog message, or
a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) trap.
A sample EEM policy that uses syslog to alert administrators of
blocked interfaces is available at Cisco Beyond, an online community
dedicated to EEM. A sample script is available at the following link:
http://forums.cisco.com/eforum/servlet/EEM?page=eem&fn=script&scriptId=981
More information about EEM is available from Cisco.com at the
following link:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6815/products_ios_protocol_group_home.html

+-------------------------------
Customers with contracts should obtain upgraded software through
their regular update channels. For most customers, this means that
upgrades should be obtained through the Software Center on Cisco's
worldwide website at http://www.cisco.com
Customers using Third Party Support Organizations
+------------------------------------------------
Customers whose Cisco products are provided or maintained through
prior or existing agreements with third-party support organizations,
such as Cisco Partners, authorized resellers, or service providers
should contact that support organization for guidance and assistance
with the appropriate course of action in regards to this advisory.
The effectiveness of any workaround or fix is dependent on specific
customer situations, such as product mix, network topology, traffic
behavior, and organizational mission. Due to the variety of affected
products and releases, customers should consult with their service
provider or support organization to ensure any applied workaround or
fix is the most appropriate for use in the intended network before it
is deployed.
Customers without Service Contracts
+----------------------------------
Customers who purchase direct from Cisco but do not hold a Cisco
service contract, and customers who purchase through third-party
vendors but are unsuccessful in obtaining fixed software through
their point of sale should acquire upgrades by contacting the Cisco
Technical Assistance Center (TAC). TAC contacts are as follows.
* +1 800 553 2447 (toll free from within North America)
* +1 408 526 7209 (toll call from anywhere in the world)
* e-mail: tac@cisco.com
Customers should have their product serial number available and be
prepared to give the URL of this notice as evidence of entitlement to
a free upgrade. Free upgrades for non-contract customers must be
requested through the TAC.
