Original Filing — NVD Description

A vulnerability in the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) on the Cisco TelePresence Video Communication Server (VCS) could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on the targeted appliance. The vulnerability is due to excessive SIP traffic sent to the device. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by transmitting large volumes of SIP traffic to the VCS. An exploit could allow the attacker to cause a complete DoS condition on the targeted system. Cisco Bug IDs: CSCve32897.
