The vulnerability is due to insufficient sanity checks on an internal data structure. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a sequence of malicious SIP messages to an affected device. An exploit could allow the attacker to cause a NULL pointer dereference, resulting in a crash of the iosd process. This triggers a reload of the device.","severity":{"version":"3.0","score":8.6,"vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:H","level":"high","assessor":"cna","from":"cve"},"epss":{"day":"2026-11-10","score":0.01984,"percentile":0.80749,"model":"v2026.06.15"},"facts":{"in_kev":false,"known_exploited":false,"public_exploit":false,"fix_available":false},"cwes":["CWE-476"],"published":"2019-09-25T20:16:01Z","modified":"2026-06-17T02:15:08Z","products":[{"vendor":"cisco","product":"cisco ios 15.0(1)xa2"},{"vendor":"cisco","product":"ios_xe"}],"references":[{"url":"https://tools.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/cisco-sa-20190925-sip-dos","tags":["vendor-advisory","x_refsource_CISCO","x_transferred","Vendor Advisory"]},{"url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2019-12654"},{"url":"https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-fg75-chcf-xjg7"}],"sources":{"cve":[{"id":"CVE-2019-12654","title":"Cisco IOS and IOS XE Software Session Initiation Protocol Denial of Service Vulnerability","description":"A vulnerability in the common Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) library of Cisco IOS and IOS XE Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to trigger a reload of an affected device, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition.
