CVE-2002-1098 describes a critical vulnerability in Cisco VPN 3000 Concentrator versions 2.2.x and 3.x prior to 3.5.3. When the XML filter configuration is enabled, the concentrator incorrectly configures an "HTTPS on Public Inbound" rule with the protocol set to "ANY" instead of HTTPS, allowing arbitrary traffic to bypass intended security policies. This flaw carries a CVSS score of 7.5, indicating a high severity due to its network-based attack vector, low attack complexity, and potential for complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. There is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or significant community discussion or media coverage surrounding this vulnerability.
