CVE-2024-20294

19
FAUCET Score

CVE-2024-20294 is a medium-severity denial-of-service vulnerability affecting Cisco FXOS and NX-OS Software's Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) feature. An unauthenticated, adjacent attacker can exploit this by sending a crafted LLDP packet to an affected device, potentially causing the LLDP service to crash and, in some cases, trigger a device reload. The attack requires physical or logical adjacency and user interaction to retrieve LLDP statistics. There is currently no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code, or significant community discussion.
