WLC vulnerability announcement

[CiaranB]

Hi all,

You may not be able to give a definitive answer on this but my question is about the following vulnerability announcement:

https://tools.cisco.com/security/center/content/CiscoSecurityAdvisory/cisco-sa-20190417-wlc-iapp

We're running version 8.3.132.0 on an 8540 with 2000+ registered AP's in a college campus.

We plan on upgrading the WLC and AP's in early June while out of term.

How easy or likely is this vulnerability to be exploited?

Would you move the upgrade date forward? May is a sensitive time of year for upgrades and changes.

thanks

Depends on the technical know-how of the attacker and the motivation.
