Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.95%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
Cisco Secure ACS 3.x before 3.3(4) Build 12 patch 7, 4.0.x, 4.1.x before 4.1(4) Build 13 Patch 11, and 4.2.x before 4.2(0) Build 124 Patch 4 does not properly handle an EAP Response packet in which the value of the length field exceeds the actual packet length, which allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (CSRadius and CSAuth service crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted RADIUS (1) EAP-Response/Identity, (2) EAP-Response/MD5, or (3) EAP-Response/TLS Message Attribute packet.
