Summary
CVE-2023-20176 is a vulnerability affecting the networking component of Cisco access points (APs) software. This issue allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to disrupt services temporarily by overwhelming AP resources. The attacker can achieve this by connecting to an AP as a wireless client and sending a high volume of traffic for an extended period. Consequentially, the Datagram TLS (DTLS) session tears down and resets, leading to a denial of service (DoS) condition.
