CVE-2000-0613 is a vulnerability affecting Cisco Secure PIX Firewalls. The issue arises due to the firewall's inability to distinguish forged TCP reset (RST) packets from legitimate ones. As a result, remote attackers can manipulate RST packets to force the firewall to close valid connections, potentially causing disruptions in network communication. This vulnerability poses a significant risk, as it can lead to unintended connection termination and disrupt normal network traffic. It is crucial for organizations using Cisco Secure PIX Firewalls to apply the appropriate patches to mitigate this threat.
