CVE-2000-1027 describes an information disclosure vulnerability in Cisco Secure PIX Firewall 5.2(2). Remote attackers can determine the internal IP address of an FTP server protected by the firewall by repeatedly sending PASV requests, which causes the firewall to reveal the real IP in the FTP response. This vulnerability has a CVSS score of 5.0 (Medium), indicating a network-based attack with low complexity, requiring no authentication, and impacting confidentiality. While the direct impact is information disclosure, this could aid further reconnaissance. There is no evidence of active exploitation, nor is it listed in CISA's KEV catalog. However, an exploit module for this vulnerability exists on ExploitDB (EDB-20369), suggesting publicly available proof-of-concept code. Community discussion and media coverage are minimal.
