Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS 10.2.x / 11.1.x / 11.2.x / 12.1.x Vulnerability

high Nessus Plugin ID 314455

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 a vulnerable version of 10.2.x, 11.1.x, 11.2.x, or 12.1.x. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability.

 A server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in the IKEv2 implementation of Palo Alto Networks PAN- OS software allows an unauthenticated attacker to cause the firewall to send network requests to unintended destinations or cause a denial of service (DoS) condition.

 Panorama, Cloud NGFW and Prisma Access are not impacted by these vulnerabilities.

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 a fixed version
