BIG-IP Appliance mode iAppsLX vulnerability

0-byte record padding oracle

A race condition when discarding malformed packets can cause BIND to exit with an assertion failure

F5 BIG-IP LTM, AFM, Analytics, APM, ASM, Link Controller, and PEM 11.3.x, 11.4.x before 11.4.1 HF10, 11.5.x before 11.5.4, 11.6.x before 11.6.1, and 12.x before 12.0.0 HF1; BIG-IP AAM 11.4.x before 11.4.1 HF10, 11.5.x before 11.5.4, 11.6.x before 11.6.1, and 12.x before 12.0.0 HF1; BIG-IP DNS 12.x before 12.0.0 HF1; BIG-IP Edge Gateway, WebAccelerator, and WOM 11.3.0; BIG-IP GTM 11.3.x, 11.4.x before 11.4.1 HF10, 11.5.x before 11.5.4, and 11.6.x before 11.6.1; BIG-IP PSM 11.3.x and 11.4.x before 11.4.1 HF10; Enterprise Manager 3.0.0 through 3.1.1; BIG-IQ Cloud and BIG-IQ Security 4.0.0 through 4.5.0; BIG-IQ Device 4.2.0 through 4.5.0; BIG-IQ ADC 4.5.0; BIG-IQ Centralized Management 4.6.0; and BIG-IQ Cloud and Orchestration 1.0.0 on the 3900, 6900, 8900, 8950, 11000, 11050, PB100 and PB200 platforms, when software SYN cookies are configured on virtual servers, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (High-Speed Bridge hang) via an invalid TCP segment.

Virtual servers in F5 BIG-IP systems 11.6.1 before 11.6.1 HF1 and 12.1.x before 12.1.2, when configured to parse RADIUS messages via an iRule, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (Traffic Management Microkernel restart) via crafted network traffic.

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 device group.

SSL virtual servers in F5 BIG-IP systems 10.x before 10.2.4 HF9, 11.x before 11.2.1 HF12, 11.3.0 before HF10, 11.4.0 before HF8, 11.4.1 before HF5, 11.5.0 before HF5, and 11.5.1 before HF5, when used with third-party Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) accelerator cards, might allow remote attackers to have unspecified impact via a timing side-channel attack.

On F5 BIG-IP 13.0.0, 12.0.0-12.1.2, 11.6.1-11.6.3.1, 11.5.1-11.5.5, or 11.2.1, when processing DIAMETER transactions with carefully crafted attribute-value pairs, TMM may crash.

When F5 BIG-IP 13.0.0-13.1.0.5, 12.1.0-12.1.3.5, 11.6.0-11.6.3.2, or 11.5.1-11.5.6 is processing specially crafted TCP traffic with the Large Receive Offload (LRO) feature enabled, TMM may crash, leading to a failover event. This vulnerability is not exposed unless LRO is enabled, so most affected customers will be on 13.1.x. LRO has been available since 11.4.0 but is not enabled by default until 13.1.0.

In F5 BIG-IP LTM, AAM, AFM, Analytics, APM, ASM, DNS, GTM, Link Controller, PEM and WebSafe software version 13.0.0 and 12.0.0 - 12.1.2, undisclosed traffic patterns sent to BIG-IP virtual servers, with the TCP Fast Open and Tail Loss Probe options enabled in the associated TCP profile, may cause a disruption of service to the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM).

On F5 BIG-IP systems running 13.0.0, 12.1.0 - 12.1.3.1, or 11.6.1 - 11.6.2, every Multipath TCP (MCTCP) connection established leaks a small amount of memory. Virtual server using TCP profile with Multipath TCP (MCTCP) feature enabled will be affected by this issue.

In some circumstances, on F5 BIG-IP systems running 13.0.0, 12.1.0 - 12.1.3.1, any 11.6.x or 11.5.x release, or 11.2.1, TCP DNS profile allows excessive buffering due to lack of flow control.

In F5 BIG-IP LTM, AAM, AFM, Analytics, APM, ASM, DNS, Edge Gateway, GTM, Link Controller, PEM, PSM, WebAccelerator, and WebSafe 11.6.1 HF1, 12.0.0 HF3, 12.0.0 HF4, and 12.1.0 through 12.1.2, undisclosed traffic patterns received while software SYN cookie protection is engaged may cause a disruption of service to the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) on specific platforms and configurations.

In versions 13.0.0-13.0.0 HF2, 12.1.0-12.1.2 HF1, and 11.6.1-11.6.2, BIG-IP platforms with Cavium Nitrox SSL hardware acceleration cards, a Virtual Server configured with a Client SSL profile, and using Anonymous (ADH) or Ephemeral (DHE) Diffie-Hellman key exchange and Single DH use option not enabled in the options list may be vulnerable to crafted SSL/TLS Handshakes that may result with a PMS (Pre-Master Secret) that starts in a 0 byte and may lead to a recovery of plaintext messages as BIG-IP TLS/SSL ADH/DHE sends different error messages acting as an oracle. Similar error messages when PMS starts with 0 byte coupled with very precise timing measurement observation may also expose this vulnerability.

On BIG-IP 14.0.0-14.0.0.2 or 13.0.0-13.1.1.1, in certain circumstances, when processing traffic through a Virtual Server with an associated MQTT profile, the TMM process may produce a core file and take the configured HA action.

On BIG-IP 11.5.1-11.6.3.2, 12.1.3.4-12.1.3.7, 13.0.0 HF1-13.1.1.1, and 14.0.0-14.0.0.2, Multi-Path TCP (MPTCP) does not protect against multiple zero length DATA_FINs in the reassembly queue, which can lead to an infinite loop in some circumstances.

On F5 BIG-IP 16.1.x versions prior to 16.1.2.2 and 15.1.x versions prior to 15.1.5.1, when a BIG-IP DNS resolver-enabled, HTTP-Explicit or SOCKS profile is configured on a virtual server, an undisclosed DNS response can cause the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) process to terminate. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated

On BIG-IP (LTM, AAM, AFM, Analytics, APM, ASM, DNS, FPS, GTM, Link Controller, PEM) versions 15.1.0-15.1.0.5, 14.1.0-14.1.2.3, and 13.1.0-13.1.3.3, when handling MQTT traffic through a BIG-IP virtual server associated with an MQTT profile and an iRule performing manipulations on that traffic, TMM may produce a core file.

On BIG-IP 15.0.0-15.0.1.1, 14.1.0-14.1.2.2, 14.0.0-14.0.1, 13.1.0-13.1.3.1, 12.1.0-12.1.5, and 11.6.0-11.6.5.1, the tmm crashes under certain circumstances when using the connector profile if a specific sequence of connections are made.

On BIG-IP 11.5.1-11.5.4, 11.6.1, and 12.1.0, a virtual server configured with a Client SSL profile may be vulnerable to a chosen ciphertext attack against CBC ciphers. When exploited, this may result in plaintext recovery of encrypted messages through a man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack, despite the attacker not having gained access to the server's private key itself. (CVE-2019-6593 also known as Zombie POODLE and GOLDENDOODLE.)
