Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS 10.1.x < 10.1.14-h14 / 10.2.x < 10.2.11 / 11.0.x < 11.0.7 / 11.1.x < 11.1.5 Vulnerability

medium Nessus Plugin ID 236412

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 10.1.x prior to 10.1.14-h14, 10.2.x prior to 10.2.11, 11.0.x prior to 11.0.7, or 11.1.x prior to 11.1.5. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability.

Using the AES-128-CCM algorithm for IPSec on certain Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS firewalls (PA-7500, PA-5400, PA-5400f, PA-3400, PA-1600, PA-1400, and PA-400 Series) leads to unencrypted data transfer to devices that are connected to the PAN-OS firewall through IPSec.

This issue does not affect Cloud NGFWs, Prisma Access instances, or PAN-OS VM-Series firewalls.

NOTE: The AES-128-CCM encryption algorithm is not recommended for use.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the PAN-OS security advisory.

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 10.1.14-h14 / 10.2.11 / 11.0.7 / 11.1.5 or later
