The vulnerability is due to improper validation of a Java Archive (JAR) file that is scanned when AMP is configured. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by crafting a JAR file and attaching this JAR file to an email that is then sent through the ESA, or allowing the JAR file to be download from the web through the WSA.&nbsp;An exploit could allow the attacker to cause the Cisco ESA and WSA AMP process to unexpectedly restart due to the malformed JAR file. Cisco has released software updates that address this vulnerability. Workarounds that address this vulnerability are not available.
