> DESCRIPTION:
> Two vulnerabilities have been reported in Cisco Wireless IP Phone,
> which can be exploited by malicious people to gain access to
> potentially sensitive information, to modify certain information, and
> to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).
>
> 1) The SNMP service that runs on the IP phone uses fixed read-only
> and read-write community strings of "public" and "private", which
> cannot be changed by the user. This can be exploited to retrieve and
> modify the device configuration, including stored user data such as
> phone book entries by sending SNMP GetRequest or SetRequest to
> phone.
>
> 2) The IP phone listens on port 17185/udp to allow connections from
> the VxWorks debugger. This may be exploit to collect debugging
> information or to cause a DoS on the device.
>
> The vulnerabilities have been reported in Cisco 7920 Wireless IP
> Phone with firmware version 2.0 and prior.
>
> SOLUTION:
> Apply firmware update.
