CVE-2011-3295
The NETIO and IPV4_IO processes in Cisco IOS XR 3.8 through 4.1, as used in Cisco Carrier Routing System and other products, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via crafted network traffic, aka Bug ID CSCti59888.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.78%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
