What is CVE-2001-0862?

Cisco 12000 Series Routers running IOS 12.0 are susceptible to a vulnerability that allows remote attackers to bypass the Access Control List (ACL) protections. This occurs because the affected devices do not adequately handle non-initial packet fragments, potentially allowing malicious actors to exploit this weakness to gain unauthorized access or disrupt network operations. This flaw underscores the importance of maintaining updated security protocols and firmware.
