Buffer overflow

Hello,

I run a security scanner against routers on my network. Some of the router came back with "cfingerd util-c buffer overflow" . How does it affect routers

and switches? Should I upgrade IOS?

Thanks,

The security bulletins do not list the Cisco IOS as a vulnerable for the cfingerd util.c buffer overflow.

The safe things would be to turn the fingerd service off the router

no service fingerd
