The more I dive into this, the more I want to return to my bed and
pull the blanket over my head...

So, the Cisco bug ID claims "this has been fixed in some versions",
but none of those are "ASR920 IOS trains" (except 03.9(00)E, which
is sort of weird).

The bug also claims "CVE ID CVE-2012-5719 has been assigned", but 
MITRE says "** RESERVED ** This candidate has been reserved by an
organization or individual that will use it when announcing a new
security problem", so it got never published...

That said, I then went to test our Junipers and Aristas, and they
all do the same silly shit - no SNMPv3 configured, strict ACLs for
all configured SNMP communities, and *still* SNMP engine discovery
works from arbitrary sources out there.  On the switches it's not
that annoying (management interface is in a well-isolated network
segment) but on the routers, customer-facing IPs are reachable
"from the world".

Sounds like a nice reflection attack in the coming...

*grumble*
