CVE-2015-6260
Cisco NX-OS 7.1(1)N1(1) on Nexus 5500, 5600, and 6000 devices does not properly validate PDUs in SNMP packets, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (SNMP application restart) via a crafted packet, aka Bug ID CSCut84645.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.35%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
