Heap-based buffer overflow in the TFTP server capability in Cisco IOS 11.1, 11.2, and 11.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (reset) or modify configuration via a long filename.

The remote TFTP server dies when it receives a too big UDP datagram.
An attacker may use this flaw to disable the server, or even execute arbitrary code on the system.

Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) is a protocol that allows for easy transfer of files between network connected devices. A vulnerability has been discovered in the processing of filenames within a TFTP read request when Cisco IOS is configured to act as a TFTP server. This vulnerability is documented as Cisco Bug ID CSCdy03429
