Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS 5.x < 5.0.9 Multiple Vulnerabilities

medium Nessus Plugin ID 72829

Synopsis

The remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The remote host is running a version of Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS 5.x prior to 5.0.9. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

- A security bypass vulnerability exists due to a failure to properly enforce RADIUS users' permissions. An authenticated attacker can exploit this to modify shared objects. (Ref# 55287)

- A cross-site request forgery vulnerability exists due to a failure to properly validate HTTP requests to certain file upload forms, including 'import.certificate.php'.

- Multiple HTML injection vulnerabilities exist due to a failure to sanitize user-supplied input to the 'Name', 'Subject', and 'Issuer' fields in imported certificates.
An attacker can exploit this to inject arbitrary HTML into the device's web interface.
(Ref# 57343)

Solution

Upgrade to PAN-OS version 5.0.9 or later.
