Vulnerabilities (CVE)

In F5 BIG-IP systems 12.1.0 - 12.1.2, malicious requests made to virtual servers with an HTTP profile can cause the TMM to restart. The issue is exposed with BIG-IP APM profiles, regardless of settings. The issue is also exposed with the non-default "Normalize URI" configuration options used in iRules and/or BIG-IP LTM policies. An attacker may be able to disrupt traffic or cause the BIG-IP system to fail over to another device in the device group.

An undisclosed traffic pattern received by a BIG-IP Virtual Server with TCP Fast Open enabled may cause the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) to restart, resulting in a Denial-of-Service (DoS).

Buffer overflow in the mcpq daemon in F5 BIG-IP systems 10.x before 10.2.4 HF12, 11.x before 11.2.1 HF15, 11.3.x, 11.4.x before 11.4.1 HF9, 11.5.x before 11.5.2 HF1, and 11.6.0 before HF4, and Enterprise Manager 2.1.0 through 2.3.0 and 3.x before 3.1.1 HF5 allows remote authenticated administrators to cause a denial of service via unspecified vectors.

In F5 BIG-IP LTM, AAM, AFM, Analytics, APM, ASM, DNS, GTM, Link Controller, PEM and Websafe software version 12.0.0 to 12.1.1, 11.6.0 to 11.6.1, 11.5.0 - 11.5.4, virtual servers with a configuration using the HTTP Explicit Proxy functionality and/or SOCKS profile are vulnerable to an unauthenticated, remote attack that allows modification of BIG-IP system configuration, extraction of sensitive system files, and/or possible remote command execution on the BIG-IP system.

The Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) in F5 BIG-IP before 11.5.4 HF3, 11.6.x before 11.6.1 HF2 and 12.x before 12.1.2 does not properly handle minimum path MTU options for IPv6, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial-of-service (DoS) through unspecified vectors.

In some cases the MCPD binary cache in F5 BIG-IP devices may allow a user with Advanced Shell access, or privileges to generate a qkview, to temporarily obtain normally unrecoverable information.

An unauthenticated remote attacker may be able to disrupt services on F5 BIG-IP 11.4.1 - 11.5.4 devices with maliciously crafted network traffic. This vulnerability affects virtual servers associated with TCP profiles when the BIG-IP system's tm.tcpprogressive db variable value is set to non-default setting "enabled". The default value for the tm.tcpprogressive db variable is "negotiate". An attacker may be able to disrupt traffic or cause the BIG-IP system to fail over to another device in the ...

In F5 BIG-IP 12.1.0 through 12.1.2, permissions enforced by iControl can lag behind the actual permissions assigned to a user if the role_map is not reloaded between the time the permissions are changed and the time of the user's next request. This is a race condition that occurs rarely in normal usage; the typical period in which this is possible is limited to at most a few seconds after the permission change.

In F5 BIG-IP LTM, AAM, AFM, Analytics, APM, ASM, DNS, Edge Gateway, GTM, Link Controller, PEM, WebAccelerator software version 12.0.0 - 12.1.2, 11.6.0 - 11.6.1, 11.4.0 - 11.5.4, 11.2.1, when ConfigSync is configured, attackers on adjacent networks may be able to bypass the TLS protections usually used to encrypted and authenticate connections to mcpd.

In F5 BIG-IP LTM, AAM, AFM, Analytics, APM, ASM, DNS, GTM, Link Controller, PEM and WebSafe software version 13.0.0, a slow memory leak as a result of undisclosed IPv4 or IPv6 packets sent to BIG-IP management port or self IP addresses may lead to out of memory (OOM) conditions.

A BIG-IP virtual server configured with a Client SSL profile that has the non-default Session Tickets option enabled may leak up to 31 bytes of uninitialized memory. A remote attacker may exploit this vulnerability to obtain Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) session IDs from other sessions. It is possible that other data from uninitialized memory may be returned as well.
