CVE-2026-107245Stack-based Buffer Overflow
NVDCVSS scored by 134c704f-9b21-4f2e-91b3-4a467353bcc0
Vulnerability Summary
Versa has confirmed a buffer overflow vulnerability in the IPsec implementation on VOS, aka Versa FlexVNF.
Buffer Overflow Vulnerability Description
When a maliciously crafted IKE Auth packet is sent to VOS, the vsmd process crashes, thereby resulting in a Denial of Service. An attacker can create a Denial-of-Service attack on the VOS appliances by crafting a malicious IKE Auth packet and sending it to the WAN interfaces on the VOS.
During the IKE Authentication phase, if the IKE SA negotiation fails, and the size of the Remote ID is larger than the buffer size used to process the Remote ID, it will result in a crash of the vsmd process on the VOS appliance.
What is impacted?
VOS nodes configured with IPsec VPN profiles of type controller-staging-sdwan or remote-access-server using a WAN interface as the IPsec endpoint are vulnerable. (IPsec profiles configured with an overlay interface as the IPsec endpoint are not affected.) This configuration typically applies to all Controllers, Hub Controllers, and SSE Gateways. Additionally, site-to-site VPN profiles configured without a peer IP address, hostname, or FQDN are also vulnerable.
What is not impacted?
The VOS nodes listed above are not vulnerable if they are not accessible from the Internet.
