Autonomic Network Part 3: Vulnerabilities

Thu, 13 Apr 2017 00:00:00 +0000

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

Autonomic Networking – Part 2: Analysis

Mon, 20 Mar 2017 00:00:00 +0000

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.

Autonomic Networking – Part 1: Overview

Sun, 19 Mar 2017 00:00:00 +0000

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!
