I have a 3640 router running 12.0(7)XK2
I am having difficulty obtaining information as to what IOS I can go to in order to patch Cisco latest vulnerability. Any assistance with this would be great.
Thank you in advance.

Hi rich,
You must be a bit more specific about what should be fixed (in your opinion).
But this is not all: It is more than likely that an upgrade to a more recent IOS will require a substantial upgrade of your flash and RAM memories costing substantial $$$. To determine if this is indeed required and to know what we are talking about, the output of the "sh ver" command would make things a lot clearer.
The bottom line of this story might very well be that you are simply cheaper off when you buy yourself a new router.
Regards,
Leo

Thank you for your response. Flash and memory are my primary concern in updating the IOS. Just cant seem to find any documentation on what I need. I have attached a txt file with show version stats. Thanks again in advance for your assistance! Here is the info to the fix I was referring to:
The networking giant on Wednesday released an update to fix a serious so-called heap-overflow vulnerability in its Internetwork Operating System, or IOS. This type of security flaw is commonly found in software and often allows a remote attacker to gain control of the affected system.
