Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in Cisco Secure Access Control Server (ACS), which could be exploited by attackers to take complete control of an affected system or cause a denial of service.

The first issue is due to a stack overflow error in the CSAdmin service when processing malformed HTTP GET requests, which could be exploited by remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands or cause the web administrative interface to become unavailable, creating a denial of service condition.

The second vulnerability is due to a stack overflow error in the CSRadius service when processing specially crafted RADIUS Accounting-Request packets, which could be exploited by attackers to crash a vulnerable service or execute arbitrary commands. The RADIUS secret key that is shared between the Network Access Server (NAS) and the Cisco Secure ACS server and/or appliance is required to exploit this vulnerability.

The third issue is due to errors in the CSRadius service when handling specially crafted RADIUS Access-Request packets, which could be exploited by attackers to crash a vulnerable service. The RADIUS secret key that is shared between the Network Access Server (NAS) and the Cisco Secure ACS server and/or appliance is not required to exploit these vulnerabilities.
