Summary
=======
A vulnerability in the anti-spam scanner of Cisco AsyncOS for Cisco
Email Security Appliance (ESA) could allow an unauthenticated, remote
attacker to bypass the anti-spam functionality of the ESA.
The vulnerability is due to improper error handling of a malformed

vulnerability by sending a crafted DNS Sender Policy Framework (SPF)
text record. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to bypass
the anti-spam scanner and generate a malformed packet alert.
