The Cisco IP Phone 7940 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (reboot) via a large amount of TCP SYN packets (syn flood) to arbitrary ports, as demonstrated to port 80.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
