CVE-2025-20352 is a stack-based buffer overflow in the Simple Network Management Protocol subsystem of Cisco IOS Software and Cisco IOS XE Software. An authenticated remote attacker can send a crafted SNMP packet over IPv4 or IPv6 to trigger the overflow. The issue affects all SNMP versions. Depending on the attacker’s privileges and affected platform, exploitation can reload the device or execute arbitrary code as root on Cisco IOS XE.
