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-h13 or 10.2.x prior to 10.2.9 or 11.0.x prior to 11.0.4. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability.

 A command injection vulnerability in Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS software enables an authenticated administrator to bypass system restrictions and run arbitrary commands as a root user. This issue is only applicable to PAN-OS VM-Series. This issue does not affect firewalls that are already deployed.

 Cloud NGFW and Prisma Access are not affected 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 PAN-OS 10.1.14-h13 / 10.2.9 / 11.0.4 or later
