Synopsis

The remote PAN-OS host is affected by a vulnerability

Description

The version of Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS running on the remote host is 10.2.x prior to 10.2.9-h1 or 11.0.x prior to 11.0.4-h1 or 11.1.x prior to 11.1.2-h3. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability.

 - A command injection as a result of arbitrary file creation vulnerability in the GlobalProtect feature of Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS software for specific PAN-OS versions and distinct feature configurations may enable an unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code with root privileges on the firewall.
 (CVE-2024-3400)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to PAN-OS 10.2.9-h1 / 11.0.4-h1 / 11.1.2-h3 or later
