Vulnerability in Cisco Pix Firewall
CVE-1999-1582
By design, the "established" command on the Cisco PIX firewall allows connections from one host to arbitrary ports of a target host if an alternative conduit has already been allowed, which can cause administrators to configure less restrictive access controls than intended if they do not understand this functionality.
