Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS 10.1.x < 10.1.14-h11 / 10.2.x < 10.2.10-h6 / 11.0.x < 11.0.6 / 11.1.x < 11.1.5 / 11.2.x < 11.2.3 Vulnerability

high Nessus Plugin ID 234100

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-h11 or 10.2.x prior to 10.2.10-h6 or 11.0.x prior to 11.0.6 or 11.1.x prior to 11.1.5 or 11.2.x prior to 11.2.3. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability.

When configured using SAML, a session fixation vulnerability in the GlobalProtect login enables an attacker to impersonate a legitimate authorized user and perform actions as that GlobalProtect user. This requires the legitimate user to first click on a malicious link provided by the attacker.

The SAML login for the PAN-OS management interface is not affected. Additionally, this issue does not affect Cloud NGFW and all Prisma Access instances are proactively patched.

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-h11 / 10.2.10-h6 / 11.0.6 / 11.1.5 / 11.2.3 or later
