This is the 3rd post in the series of Autonomic Network (AN), it will dedicated
for discussing the vulnerabilities. I recommend reading the first 2 parts
(part one,
part two) to be
familiar with the technology and how the proprietary protocol is constructed.
Initially we will discuss 2 of the reported CVEs, but later there is more CVEs
to come 😉
Here is a quick overview on how our network looks like for 2 CVEs
This is the second part in the Autonomic Network series. We have introduced
previously in our
first part the
Autonomic Network (AN), took a look about the needed configuration to run it on
Cisco gear and what is the expected communication flow. In this post, we will
dive deeper to have a closer look on the packets and how they are composed.
Cisco’s AN protocol is a proprietary one and as far as I know, the analysis
provided here for the protocol is the first of its kind.
This is a 3-part series which introduces and analyzes Cisco’s implementation for
Autonomic Network. In the 1st part, the technology is introduced and we have an
overview about communication flow. In the
2nd part, Cisco’s
proprietary protocol is reverse engineered ? then finally in the
3rd part,
multiple vulnerabilities will be disclosed for the first time. If you’re aware
of the technology, you can skip directly to part 2 where the action begins!
