Running Nessus 2.0.9 against Alcatel 7000 series causing a swith to reboot via buffer overflow(?). Alcatel has multiple services running on the background, with no option to shut them down. Vulnerable ports: 80, 260, 261, 443. Disabling a service via qos policy (suggested by Alcatel) does just a minor relief, since many other possible vulnerabilities cause the same outcome. Systems affected: 7700, 7800, possibly 8800 (have not tested due to the critical switch location) Tested System info: -------------------- FPGA : 38 BootROM Version: 5.1.4.67.R01 OS: 5.1.4.27.R03 Test configuration: ------------------- ports 1-1024 no safe-checks (NOTE: safe-checks occasionally crash the switch as well) 1870 plugins enable all scans enable
