A flaw was found in the SIP Enablement Services (SES) servers handling of remote management login failures. An invalid login does not block Core router updates which allows the remote system to execute system updates. This could cause the SES server to become unusable for handling SIP messages and/or allow unwanted system control.
A flaw was found in the SES servers handling of alarms generated by remote management login failures. Both the login and password are shown in the alarm and system logs.
