http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20090325-webvpn.shtml
Revision 1.0
For Public Release 2009 March 25 1600 UTC (GMT)
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary
======
Cisco IOS software contains two vulnerabilities within the Cisco IOS
WebVPN or Cisco IOS SSLVPN feature (SSLVPN) that can be remotely
exploited without authentication to cause a denial of service
condition. Both vulnerabilities affect both Cisco IOS WebVPN and
Cisco IOS SSLVPN features:
1. Crafted HTTPS packet will crash device.
2. SSLVPN sessions cause a memory leak in the device.
Cisco has released free software updates that address these
vulnerabilities.
There are no workarounds that mitigate these vulnerabilities.

Affected Products
================
Vulnerable Products
+------------------
Devices running affected versions of Cisco IOS software are affected
if configured with SSLVPN.
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)
