Multiple vulnerabilities in the Operation, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM) feature of Cisco NX-OS Software, known as Next Generation OAM (NGOAM), could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary code with root privileges or cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on an affected device. These vulnerabilities are due to improper input validation of IP traffic when NGOAM is enabled.
