F5 Networks BIG-IP : BIG-IP TMM tenants on VELOS and rSeries vulnerability (K000139217)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 197069

Synopsis

The remote device is missing a vendor-supplied security patch.

Description

The version of F5 Networks BIG-IP installed on the remote host is prior to 15.1.10. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the K000139217 advisory.

- Under certain conditions, a potential data leak may occur in the Traffic Management Microkernels (TMMs) of BIG-IP tenants running on VELOS and rSeries platforms. However, this issue cannot be exploited by an attacker because it is not consistently reproducible and is beyond an attacker's control. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated (CVE-2024-32761)

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 one of the non-vulnerable versions listed in the F5 Solution K000139217.
