Summary
=======
Multiple Cisco products contain vulnerabilities in the processing of H.323
messages, which are typically used in Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP)
or multimedia applications. A test suite has been developed by the
University of Oulu to target this protocol and identify vulnerabilities.
Support for the H.323 protocol was introduced in Cisco IOS® Software
Release 11.3T. Release 11.3T, and all later Cisco IOS releases are
affected if configured for various types of voice/multimedia application
support. Vulnerable devices include those configured as an H.323 network
element as well as those configured for IOS Network Address Translation
(NAT) and those configured for IOS Firewall (also known as Context-Based
Access Control [CBAC]).
Other Cisco voice products that do not run Cisco IOS may also be affected.
These vulnerabilities can be exploited repeatedly to produce a denial of
service (DoS).
This advisory is available at
http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20040113-h323.shtml.
Affected Products
=================
All Cisco products that run Cisco IOS software and support H.323 packet
processing are affected. This may include devices configured for Session
Initiation Protocol (SIP) or Media Gateway Control Protocol (MGCP), since
support for these protocols can enable support for H.323. Cisco AS5xxx
series platforms are vulnerable regardless of their configuration because
of a bug that enables H.323 but does not allow the protocol to be turned
off.
Other affected products that do not run Cisco IOS software include:
* Cisco CallManager versions 3.0 through 3.3
* Cisco Conference Connection (CCC)
* Cisco Internet Service Node (ISN)
* Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch
* Cisco 7905 IP Phone H.323 Software Version 1.00
* Cisco ATA 18x series products running H.323/SIP loads with versions
earlier than 2.16.1
Note: Cisco ATA 18x series products are only vulnerable when configured
for H.323. They are not vulnerable when configured for SIP.
To determine the software running on a Cisco product, log in to the device
and issue the show version command to display the system banner. Cisco IOS
Software will identify itself as "Internetwork Operating System Software"
or simply "IOS." On the next line of output, the image name will be
displayed between parentheses, followed by "Version" and the IOS release
name. Other Cisco devices will not have the show version command or will
give different output.
The following example identifies a Cisco product running Cisco IOS
Software Release 12.0(3) with an installed image name of C2500-IS-L. The
release train label is 12.0.
Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software IOS (TM)
2500 Software (C2500-IS-L), Version 12.0(3), RELEASE SOFTWARE
The following example shows a product running Cisco IOS Software Release
12.0(2a)T1 with an image name of C2600-JS-MZ.
Cisco Internetwork Operating System Software IOS (tm)
C2600 Software (C2600-JS-MZ), Version 12.0(2a)T1, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1)
Additional information about Cisco IOS version naming is available at
http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/620/1.html.
If you are running Cisco IOS versions 10.x, 11.1, 11.2 or earlier, you are
not affected.
Cisco IOS Processing of H.323 Traffic
There are three areas where IOS can be vulnerable to malformed H.323
packets. Please read the following sections to determine if your router is
affected.
Note: If you choose to block H.323 traffic using an access list to prevent
H.323 traffic from entering the router, then you are protected and need
not bother with the details below. Please see the Workarounds section for
more details on how to do this. Cisco recommends that customers upgrade to
an appropriate IOS image at their earliest convenience.
To determine if your Cisco IOS device is processing H.323 traffic and is
possibly vulnerable, it is necessary to understand the three different
ways that Cisco IOS software processes H.323 traffic.
1. H.323 Endpoints
This includes H.323 Gateway, H.323 Gatekeeper, H.323 Gatekeeper with Proxy
and ALL of the AS5xxx platforms.
- From the enable prompt, run the show process cpu command and look for a
process called CCH323_CT. In later versions of Cisco IOS software, you can
execute the show process cpu | include CCH323_CT .
Router# show process cpu | include CCH323_CT
112 Mwe 60F3E5E0 295112 239401 123220072/24000 0 CCH323_CT
Note: Not all access server images support H.323. Only images with a
"PLUS" feature set (such as IP PLUS, ENTERPRISE PLUS) support voice and
will have the CCH323_CT process running.
* If you see the a process called CCH323_CT, your router is affected.
Please consult the IOS table to determine which version is appropriate
for your device. If you cannot immediately upgrade, the following
workarounds may work for you
+ If you are not using H.323 within your network, an inbound access
list to block TCP port 1720 will protect your router, but it is
recommended that you upgrade as soon as is feasible.
+ If you are using H.323, then you can configure an access list to
restrict TCP port 1720 traffic to known, trusted IP addresses.
Again, upgrading as soon as is feasible is recommended.
* If you do NOT see the CCH323_CT process, you may still be vulnerable.
Some configurations of H.323 Gatekeeper are vulnerable. Affected
configurations are those gatekeepers configured for H.323 Proxy. To
check to see if you are configured as a gatekeeper, check your
configuration for the line "proxy h323" in the global configuration.
If you have "proxy h323" configured, then you are vulnerable.
+ If you are not using GK proxy functionality, you can disable proxy
functionality by doing the following configuration.
Note: This will drop all calls being managed by the gatekeeper.
Perform this only when you can safely stop gatekeeper
functionality.
Router(config)#no proxy h323
Router(config)#gatekeeper
Router(config-gk)#shutdown
Router(config-gk)#no shutdown
+ If you are using H.323 proxy, your options are to either configure
an access list to restrict TCP port 1720 traffic to known, trusted
IP addresses, or to upgrade your IOS version.
2. IOS Firewall (Context-Based Access Control)
If your IOS device is configured to use IOS Firewall (IOS FW, or
Context-Based Access Control [CBAC]), check to see if IOS FW is running on
the device by issuing the show ip inspect all command. Look for the
following lines indicating that IOS FW is applied to an interface. In this
case, inspection rule "<NAME>" is applied inbound to interface
FastEthernet0/0.
Interface Configuration
Interface FastEthernet0/0
Inbound inspection rule is <NAME>
tcp alert is on audit-trail is off timeout 3600
h323 alert is on audit-trail is off timeout 3600
Outgoing inspection rule is not set
* To turn off inbound IOS FW (CBAC) on interface FastEthernet0/0, enter
the following commands in interface configuration mode.
Router#config t
Router(config)#Interface FastEthernet 0/0
Router(config-if)#no ip inspect <NAME> in
* If outbound IOS FW (CBAC) is configured on FastEthernet0/0, enter the
following commands in interface configuration mode.
Router#config t
Router(config)#Interface FastEthernet 0/0
Router(config-if)#no ip inspect <NAME> out
* To turn off the IOS FW (CBAC) processing of H.323 messages only while
leaving other IOS FW behavior unaffected, enter the following command
in global configuration mode.
Router(config)#no ip inspect name <NAME> h323
Cisco recommends that you upgrade your IOS as soon as possible.
3. IOS Network Address Translation (NAT)
If you have configured NAT rules and have NAT activated on any interface,
check to see if NAT is configured and activated on the device by issuing
the show ip nat statistics command.
Router#show ip nat statistics
Total active translations: 3 (3 static, 0 dynamic; 0 extended
Outside interfaces
Inside interfaces
Hits: 0 Misses: 0
Expired translations: 0
Dynamic mappings:
* If there is no output or the output doesn't list any inside or outside
interfaces (as in the example above), then the IOS device is not doing
NAT and you are not vulnerable because of NAT.
* If the output does list any inside or outside interfaces, then you may
be vulnerable because of NAT. An example is shown below.
Total active translations: 3 (3 static, 0 dynamic; 0 extended
Outside interfaces:
Serial3/0
Inside interfaces:
Serial1/0
Hits: 0 Misses: 0
Expired translations: 0
Dynamic mappings:
* You are not vulnerable because of NAT if your configuration only
contains Port Address Translation (PAT) statements and your PAT
statements do not explicitly specify TCP port 1720 in your PAT
translations.
+ To see if you are doing only PAT, check to see if your IOS NAT
configuration contains any of the following NAT rules without the
overload, route-map, or extendable keywords.
ip nat outside source ...
ip nat inside destination ...
ip nat inside source ...
If you see any of the above lines without the overload, route-map,
or extendable keywords, then you are vulnerable.
+ To see if you are doing a static PAT for H.323 (TCP port 1720),
look for any lines with the following pattern.
ip nat (inside|outside) source static tcp
ip-addr (port|1720) ip-addr (1720|port)
The following examples would be vulnerable.
ip nat inside source static tcp 10.1.0.1 1720 10.2.0.1 5834
ip nat outside source static tcp 10.15.12.1 6884 10.6.7.1 1720
ip nat inside source static tcp 10.1.0.17 1720 10.33.14.1 1720
The following examples would not be vulnerable.
ip nat inside source static tcp 10.1.0.17 53 10.33.14.1 53
ip nat outside source static udp 10.1.14.75 1720 10.131.1.1 6888
If any of your configuration lines are vulnerable, please consult
the Workarounds section.
To determine if a particular Cisco IOS release is vulnerable, consult the
list below in the Software Versions and Fixes section to determine if the
product is running an affected version of software.

=======
H.323 is the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) standard for
real-time multimedia communications and conferencing over packet-based
(IP) networks. A subset of the H.323 standard is H.225.0, a standard used
for call signalling protocols and media stream packetization over IP
networks.
The H.225.0 standard defines message formats for call setup, call control,
and communications using Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1). ITU
Standard Q.931, which was developed for call signalling purposes in ISDN
networks, is also used as the standard for the call setup messages within
H.225.0.
The University of Oulu Secure Programming Group (OUSPG) has created a test
suite for H.323, more specifically the H.225.0 and Q.931 messages, to help
support proactive discovery and resolution of vulnerabilities in the
processing of H.323 messages. The test suite is generally used to analyze
a protocol and produce messages that probe various design limits within an
implementation of a protocol. Test packets containing overly long or
exceptional elements in various fields of the H.323 Protocol Data Units
(PDUs) can be programmatically generated and then transmitted to a network
device under test. The PROTOS test suite for H.323, as distributed,
contains approximately 4500 individual test cases.
The vulnerabilities discovered in the affected products can be easily and
repeatedly demonstrated with the use of the OUSPG PROTOS Test Suite for
H.323. The largest group of vulnerabilities described in this advisory
result from insufficient checking of H.225.0 messages as they are received
and processed by an affected system. Malformed H.225.0 messages received
by affected systems can cause various parsing and processing functions to
fail, which may result in a system crash and reload (or reboot) in most
circumstances.
Typically, H.323 network elements implement call signalling over both UDP
and TCP transports on port 1720. The H.323 test suite from OUSPG only
tests the TCP implementation on port 1720 by default.

The vulnerabilities in Cisco IOS for devices acting as H.323 dial-peer
endpoints are documented in the following Bug IDs: CSCdt09262 ( registered
customers only) , CSCdt54401 ( registered customers only) , CSCdw14262 (
registered customers only) , CSCdx76632 ( registered customers only) ,
CSCdx77253 ( registered customers only) , CSCea19885 ( registered

registered customers only) , CSCea46342 ( registered customers only) , and
CSCec79541 ( registered customers only) .
For those Cisco IOS devices acting as a H.323 gatekeeper with proxy
configured, the vulnerabilities are documented in the following Bug IDs:
CSCea51076 ( registered customers only) , CSCea51030 ( registered
customers only) , and CSCea54851 ( registered customers only) .
Cisco IOS devices performing NAT translations on H.323 v3/4 traffic may be
vulnerable. Releases based off 12.2T must be running a version of IOS that
is based off 12.2(11)T or later and must have the hidden command ip nat
service h323all enabled. The default condition for this command is
disabled. In releases based off 12.1 and 12.1E, the device is only
vulnerable to packets sent from the outside interface to the inside
interface. This means that networks are only vulnerable if they have
static translations configured and accept connections to port 1720. A
dynamic translation can occur on port 1720, but the attack traffic would
then have to return from the destination address of the original flow and
must traverse the router while the translation is still active. Methods to
reduce exposure for dynamic translations are listed in the Workarounds
section.
The vulnerabilities in Cisco IOS for devices doing NAT on H.323 packets
starting in IOS 12.1 are documented in the following Bug IDs: CSCdr48143 (
registered customers only) , CSCdx40184 ( registered customers only) ,
CSCea27536 ( registered customers only) , CSCec76694 ( registered
customers only) , and CSCed28873 ( registered customers only) .
The vulnerabilities in Cisco IOS for devices running IOS Firewall Feature
Set doing deep packet inspection of H.323 packets in IOS starting in 12.1
are documented in the following Bug IDs: CSCec76776 ( registered customers
only) and CSCec87533 ( registered customers only) .
Cisco CallManager
The vulnerabilities in Cisco CallManager are documented in Bug IDs
CSCdx82831 ( registered customers only) , CSCea46545 ( registered
customers only) , and CSCea55518 ( registered customers only) .
In order for a Cisco CallManager running 3.1 or 3.2 to be vulnerable, the
IP address of the originating device must be configured as a H.323
gateway, H.323 client, or intercluster trunk on the CallManager, or "Allow
Anonymous Calls" must be enabled in the gatekeeper section of the
CallManager configuration. If a CallManager receives H.323 messages from a
device that is not configured as an H.225.0 device, the TCP session will
be closed before the H.225.0 message is processed. If "Allow Anonymous
Calls" is enabled in the gatekeeper configuration, the CallManager server
is vulnerable since it will try to parse the H.225.0 message from any
originating source.
In CallManager 3.3, the server is vulnerable and will try to parse H.225.0
messages received from any originating source, but the CallManager may be
listening on a port other than TCP 1720. Since the port number for
anonymous calls is something other than TCP 1720, a potential attacker
would need to determine which random port the CallManager H.323 gateway is
listening on in order to carry out a successful attack.
Cisco Conference Connection
All versions of Cisco Conference Connection (CCC) are affected. There are
currently no software fixes planned for Cisco Conference Connection (CCC).
Customers running CCC should implement a workaround to limit H.323 traffic
from trusted hosts only. A workaround for this may be found in the
Workarounds section.
Cisco Internet Service Node
All versions of Internet Service Node (ISN) are affected. There are
currently no software fixes planned for Cisco Internet Service Node (ISN).
Customers running ISN should implement a workaround to limit H.323 traffic
from trusted hosts only. A workaround for this may be found in the
Workarounds section.
Cisco 7905 Series IP Phone
The vulnerabilities in the Cisco 7905 IP Phone are documented in Bug ID
CSCec77152 ( registered customers only) .
Cisco ATA18x Series Analog Telephony Devices
The vulnerabilities in the Cisco ATA18x devices are documented in Bug IDs
CSCea46231 ( registered customers only) and CSCea48726 ( registered
customers only) .
Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch
The vulnerabilities in the Cisco BTS 10200 Softswitch are documented in
BugID CSCea48755 ( registered customers only) .
Impact
======
The vulnerabilities may be exploited to produce a denial of service (DoS)
attack. When the vulnerabilities are exploited, they may cause an affected
product to crash and reload. In the case of the Cisco CallManager, ISN,
and CCC, exploitation will result in a crash or a hang indicated by
processor utilization of 100%. When the CPU utilization is at 100% on
server-based platforms, call processing services degrade severely, calls
may drop, and no new calls can be established. A reboot of the device is
required to return it to normal service.
Software Versions and Fixes
===========================
Cisco IOS Software
Each row of the table describes a release train and the platforms or
products for which it is intended. If a given release train is vulnerable,
then the earliest possible releases that contain the fix and the
anticipated date of availability for each are listed in the Rebuild,
Interim, and Maintenance columns. In some cases, no rebuild of a
particular release is planned; this is marked with the label "Not
scheduled." A device running any release in the given train that is
earlier than the release in a specific column (less than the earliest
fixed release) is known to be vulnerable, and it should be upgraded at
least to the indicated release or a later version (greater than the
earliest fixed release label).
When selecting a release, keep in mind the following definitions.
* Maintenance
Most heavily tested and highly recommended release of any label in a
given row of the table.
* Rebuild
Constructed from the previous maintenance or major release in the same
train, it contains the fix for a specific vulnerability. Although it
receives less testing, it contains only the minimal changes necessary
to effect the repair. Cisco has made available several rebuilds of
mainline trains to address this vulnerability, but strongly recommends
running only the latest maintenance release on mainline trains.
* Interim
Built at regular intervals between maintenance releases and receives
less testing. Interims should be selected only if there is no other
suitable release that addresses the vulnerability, and interim images
should be upgraded to the next available maintenance release as soon
as possible. Interim releases are not available through manufacturing,
and usually they are not available for customer download from CCO
without prior arrangement with the Cisco Technical Assistance Center
(TAC).
In all cases, customers should exercise caution to be certain the devices
to be upgraded contain sufficient memory and that current hardware and
software configurations will continue to be supported properly by the new
release. If the information is not clear, contact the Cisco TAC for
assistance, as shown in the section following this table.
Note: For the purposes of the table below, the identifier "Element"
covers the fixes for IOS devices running as H.323 endpoints and as
gatekeepers with proxy configured.

Cisco Software - Non IOS
In all cases, customers should exercise caution to confirm that the
devices to be upgraded contain sufficient memory and that current hardware
and software configurations will continue to be supported properly by the
new software release. If the information is not clear, contact the Cisco
TAC for assistance as shown in the Obtaining Fixed Software section.

Cisco Conference Connection
There are currently no software fixes planned for Cisco Conference
Connection (CCC). Customers running CCC should implement a workaround to
limit H.323 traffic from trusted hosts only. A workaround for this may be
found in the Workarounds section.
Cisco Internet Service Node
There are currently no software fixes planned for Cisco Internet Service
Node (ISN). Customers running ISN should implement a workaround to limit
H.323 traffic from trusted hosts only. A workaround for this may be found
in the Workarounds section.
Cisco 7905 Series IP Phone
These defects have been resolved in Version 1.0(1) of the 7905 H.323 phone
firmware load. The version 1.0(1) image names containing the fixes are
cp790501001h323031212a.sbin for the signed image and
cp790501001h323031212a.zup for the unsigned image.
Cisco ATA18x Series Analog Telephony Devices
These defects have been resolved in software version 2.16.1.
Cisco BTS 10200
The Cisco BTS 10200 has software fixes available in version 4.1. Customers
who have deployed the BTS 10200 should follow the instructions below in
the Obtaining Fixed Software section to contact TAC in order to obtain the
fixed software version.
Obtaining Fixed Software
========================
Customers with contracts should obtain upgraded software through their
regular update channels. For most customers, this means that upgrades
should be obtained through the Software Center on Cisco's worldwide
website at http://www.cisco.com/.
Customers whose Cisco products are provided or maintained through prior or
existing agreement with third-party support organizations such as Cisco
Partners, authorized resellers, or service providers should contact that
support organization for assistance with the upgrade, which should be free
of charge.
Customers who purchase direct from Cisco but who do not hold a Cisco
service contract and customers who purchase through third-party vendors
but are unsuccessful at obtaining fixed software through their point of
sale should get their upgrades by contacting the Cisco Technical
Assistance Center (TAC). TAC contacts are as follows.
* +1 800 553 2447 (toll free from within North America)
* +1 408 526 7209 (toll call from anywhere in the world)
* e-mail: tac@...co.com
See http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/687/Directory/DirTAC.shtml for
additional TAC contact information, including special localized telephone
numbers and instructions and e-mail addresses for use in various
languages.
Please have your product serial number available and give the URL of this
notice as evidence of your entitlement to a free upgrade. Free upgrades
for non-contract customers must be requested through the TAC.
Please do not contact either "psirt@...co.com" or
"security-alert@...co.com" for software upgrades.
Workarounds
===========
Workarounds for H.323 endpoint and proxy configurations
Affected devices that must run H.323 are vulnerable, and there are not any
specific configurations that can be used to protect them. Applying access
lists on interfaces that should not accept H.323 traffic and putting
firewalls in strategic locations may greatly reduce exposure until an
upgrade can be performed.
The Voice over IP SAFE paper talks about a variety of best practices that
should keep your voice network isolated from the Internet. This reduces
the risk of exposure, although attacks from within the local network
should always be considered a potential risk.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/netsol/ns340/ns394/ns171/ns128/networking_solutions_white_paper09186a00801b7a50.shtml
Below is an example of an access list to block H.323 management traffic
from anywhere but a permitted network. In this example, the permitted
network is 172.16.0.0/16.
!--- Permit access from any IP address in the 172.16.0.0/16
!--- network to anywhere on port 1720.
access-list 101 permit tcp 172.16.0.0 0.0.255.255 any eq 1720
!--- Permit access from anywhere to a host in the
!--- 172.16.0.0/26 network on port 1720.
access-list 101 permit tcp any 172.16.0.0 0.0.255.255 eq 1720
!--- Deny all traffic from port 1720.
access-list 101 deny tcp any eq 1720 any
!--- Deny all traffic to port 1720.
access-list 101 deny tcp any any eq 1720
!--- Permit all other traffic.
access-list 101 permit ip any any
Workarounds for IOS devices performing NAT on H.323 traffic
Cisco IOS devices that run an affected version of 12.1 or 12.1E code and
are configured to do static NAT are vulnerable to attacks with corrupted
packets being processed by NAT through the device. There are several
methods of reducing or removing the risk in these circumstances.
* Access lists for the outside interface
H.323 deep packet inspection is only done on packets with a source or
destination port of 1720. If it is not necessary to translate or
accept these packets, they can be blocked by an external device such
as a firewall, or by input access lists applied to the outside
interface of the device performing the NAT.
interface serial 0/0
ip nat outside
!--- This is used to indicate which interface
!--- this configuration should be applied to.
ip access-group 101 in
!
access-list 101 deny tcp any eq 1720 any
access-list 101 deny tcp any any eq 1720
access-list 101 permit ip any any
* Policy-based routing to block port 1720 traffic on static NAT
translations
Simple static translations allow through traffic on any port. If it is
not necessary to allow H.323 traffic through your static NAT
configuration, but applying access lists to your outside interface is
not practical, you may use policy-based routing to reroute traffic
destined for port 1720. Policy-based routing is processed before NAT.
In this example, the address 1.0.0.5 is an externally routable address
for which the router is performing NAT to a local network address.
interface Null0
no ip unreachables
!
interface Ethernet0/0
ip address 10.0.0.8 255.255.255.0
ip nat inside
!
interface Ethernet0/1
ip address 11.0.0.8 255.255.255.0
ip nat outside
ip policy route-map block-h323
ip nat inside source static 10.0.0.5 1.0.0.5
access-list 102 permit tcp any host 1.0.0.5 eq 1720
access-list 102 permit tcp any eq 1720 host 1.0.0.5
route-map block-h323 permit 10
match ip address 102
set interface Null0
* Blocking port 1720 using dynamic translations
Dynamic translations are vulnerable to attack from the outside address
of the original flow through the open translation, but can be timed
out quickly to reduce the risk of exposure with the ip nat translation
port-timeout tcp 1720 2 command. This times out the translation for
port 1720 in 2 seconds, and may be too short for the necessary call
setup request to process.
NAT can be configured to not translate traffic sourced or destined to
port 1720 with the use of route maps to match traffic instead of
access lists. The sample configuration listed below permits traffic
sourced from the 10.0.0.0/24 network to be translated to an address
within the NAT pool "h323-test" except for traffic with a source or
destination port of 1720.
Note: This will prevent users from using NAT for H.323-enabled
applications from their PC desktops, such as NetMeeting. It is
critical to understand your network and the applications in use on it
when applying this type of workaround.
interface Ethernet0/0
ip address 10.0.0.8 255.255.255.0
ip nat inside
!
interface Ethernet0/1
ip address 11.0.0.8 255.255.255.0
ip nat outside
ip nat pool h323-test 1.0.0.5 1.0.0.15 prefix-length 24
ip nat inside source route-map h323-block pool h323-test
access-list 101 deny tcp any any eq 1720
access-list 101 deny tcp any eq 1720 any
access-list 101 permit ip host 10.0.0.0 0.0.0.255
route-map h323-block permit 10
match ip address 101
Defining a Windows-based access control list to limit H.323 traffic from
only locally trusted hosts
A scripted workaround will be made available in order to create an IP
Security Policy on the host to allow only H.323 traffic from specifically
allowed sources. This workaround named IPSec-H323.exe should be posted to
Cisco.com the week of 13-January-2004.
Exploitation and Public Announcements
