CVE-2016-1369
Status: ModifiedHigh (7.5)—
The Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) 5585-X FirePOWER Security Services Processor (SSP) module for Cisco ASA with FirePOWER Services 5.3.1 through 6.0.0 misconfigures kernel logging, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource consumption, and inspection outage or module outage) via a flood of crafted IP traffic, aka Bug ID CSCux19922.
CVSS
- Version: 3.0
- Vector: CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
- Base score: 7.5
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 1.93%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 79
- Score date: 10/4/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
