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

medium Nessus Plugin ID 325710

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 Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS software enables an authenticated administrator with network access to the management web interface to make unauthorized requests from the firewall to internal services.

 The security risk posed by this issue is minimized when the management interface is restricted to only trusted internal IP addresses according to our recommendedbest practice deployment guidelines (https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/community-blogs/tips-amp-tricks-how-to-secure-the-management-access- of-your-palo/ba-p/464431).

 Panorama, Cloud NGFW, and Prisma Access are not impacted by this vulnerability.

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
