TITLE:
Nortel WLAN Access Point 2200 Denial of Service

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA11034

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/11034/

CRITICAL:
Not critical

IMPACT:
DoS

WHERE:
From local network

OPERATING SYSTEM:
Nortel WLAN 2200 Series

DESCRIPTION:
Mark Ludwik has reported a vulnerability in Nortel WLAN Access Point
2200, allowing malicious people to cause a Denial of Service.

The problem is that the device fails to handle large amounts of data
sent to an administrative port (23/TCP and 80/TCP). This causes the
administrative service to stop responding.

Other versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Filter traffic to ensure that only trusted IP addresses can access
the administrative ports.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Mark Ludwik
