Description
A vulnerability in the file policy feature that is used to inspect encrypted archive files of Cisco Firepower Threat Defense (FTD) Software could allow an unauthenticated remote attacker to bypass a configured file policy to block an encrypted archive file. This vulnerability exists because of a logic error when a specific class of encrypted archive files is inspected. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted encrypted archive file through the affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to send an encrypted archive file which could contain malware and should have been blocked and dropped at the Cisco FTD device.
