In BIG-IP versions 15.0.0-15.1.0.3, 14.1.0-14.1.2.5, 13.1.0-13.1.3.3, 12.1.0-12.1.5.1, and 11.6.1-11.6.5.1, the Traffic Management User Interface (TMUI), also referred to as the Configuration utility, has a Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability in undisclosed pages.

GNU Bash through 4.3 processes trailing strings after function definitions in the values of environment variables, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted environment, as demonstrated by vectors involving the ForceCommand feature in OpenSSH sshd, the mod_cgi and mod_cgid modules in the Apache HTTP Server, scripts executed by unspecified DHCP clients, and other situations in which setting the environment occurs across a privilege boundary from Bash execution, aka "ShellShock." NOTE: the original fix for this issue was incorrect; CVE-2014-7169 has been assigned to cover the vulnerability that is still present after the incorrect fix.

GNU Bash through 4.3 bash43-025 processes trailing strings after certain malformed function definitions in the values of environment variables, which allows remote attackers to write to files or possibly have unknown other impact via a crafted environment, as demonstrated by vectors involving the ForceCommand feature in OpenSSH sshd, the mod_cgi and mod_cgid modules in the Apache HTTP Server, scripts executed by unspecified DHCP clients, and other situations in which setting the environment occurs across a privilege boundary from Bash execution. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2014-6271.

In certain situations, it may theoretically allow bypass of URL based access control or remote code execution (RCE). Note: Software versions which have reached End of Software Development (EoSD) are not evaluated.

Virtual servers in F5 BIG-IP systems 11.5.0, 11.5.1 before HF11, 11.5.2, 11.5.3, 11.5.4 before HF2, 11.6.0 before HF8, 11.6.1 before HF1, 12.0.0 before HF4, and 12.1.0 before HF2, when configured with the HTTP Explicit Proxy functionality or SOCKS profile, allow remote attackers to modify the system configuration, read system files, and possibly execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors.

F5 BIG-IP LTM, Analytics, APM, ASM, and Link Controller 11.2.x before 11.2.1 HF16, 11.3.x, 11.4.x, 11.5.x before 11.5.4 HF2, 11.6.x before 11.6.1 HF1, and 12.x before 12.0.0 HF3; BIG-IP AAM, AFM, and PEM 11.4.x, 11.5.x before 11.5.4 HF2, 11.6.x before 11.6.1 HF1, and 12.x before 12.0.0 HF3; BIG-IP DNS 12.x before 12.0.0 HF3; BIG-IP Edge Gateway, WebAccelerator, and WOM 11.2.x before 11.2.1 HF16 and 11.3.0; BIG-IP GTM 11.2.x before 11.2.1 HF16, 11.3.x, 11.4.x, 11.5.x before 11.5.4 HF2, and 11.6.x before 11.6.1 HF1; BIG-IP PSM 11.2.x before 11.2.1 HF16, 11.3.x, and 11.4.0 through 11.4.1; Enterprise Manager 3.1.1; BIG-IQ Cloud and 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 5.0.0; BIG-IQ Cloud and Orchestration 1.0.0; and iWorkflow 2.0.0, when Packet Filtering is enabled on virtual servers and possibly self IP addresses, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (Traffic Management Microkernel restart) and possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted network traffic.

In F5 BIG-IP LTM, AAM, AFM, Analytics, APM, ASM, DNS, GTM, Link Controller, PEM, and WebSafe 11.5.1 HF6 through 11.5.4 HF4, 11.6.0 through 11.6.1 HF1, and 12.0.0 through 12.1.2 on VIPRION platforms only, the script which synchronizes SafeNet External Network HSM configuration elements between blades in a clustered deployment will log the HSM partition password in cleartext to the "/var/log/ltm" log file.

Platform dependent weakness. This issue only impacts iSeries platforms. On these platforms, in BIG-IP (LTM, AAM, AFM, Analytics, APM, ASM, DNS, Edge Gateway, FPS, GTM, Link Controller, PEM, WebAccelerator) versions 14.0.0-14.1.0.1, 13.0.0-13.1.1.3, and 12.1.1 HF2-12.1.4, the secureKeyCapable attribute was not set which causes secure vault to not use the F5 hardware support to store the unit key. Instead the unit key is stored in plaintext on disk as would be the case for Z100 systems. Additionally this causes the unit key to be stored in UCS files taken on these platforms.

In some circumstances, an F5 BIG-IP version 12.0.0 to 12.1.2 and 13.0.0 Azure cloud instance may contain a default administrative password which could be used to remotely log into the BIG-IP system. The impacted administrative account is the Azure instance administrative user that was created at deployment. The root and admin accounts are not vulnerable. An attacker may be able to remotely access the BIG-IP host via SSH.

BIG-IP configurations using Active Directory, LDAP, or Client Certificate LDAP for management authentication with multiple servers are exposed to a vulnerability which allows an authentication bypass. This can result in a complete compromise of the system. This issue only impacts specific engineering hotfixes using the aforementioned authentication configuration. NOTE: This vulnerability does not affect any of the BIG-IP major, minor or maintenance releases you obtained from downloads.f5.com. The affected Engineering Hotfix builds are as follows: Hotfix-BIGIP-14.1.0.3.0.79.6-ENG.iso, Hotfix-BIGIP-14.1.0.3.0.97.6-ENG.iso, Hotfix-BIGIP-14.1.0.3.0.99.6-ENG.iso, Hotfix-BIGIP-14.1.0.5.0.15.5-ENG.iso, Hotfix-BIGIP-14.1.0.5.0.36.5-ENG.iso, Hotfix-BIGIP-14.1.0.5.0.40.5-ENG.iso, Hotfix-BIGIP-14.1.0.6.0.11.9-ENG.iso, Hotfix-BIGIP-14.1.0.6.0.14.9-ENG.iso, Hotfix-BIGIP-14.1.0.6.0.68.9-ENG.iso, Hotfix-BIGIP-14.1.0.6.0.70.9-ENG.iso, Hotfix-BIGIP-14.1.2.0.11.37-ENG.iso, Hotfix-BIGIP-14.1.2.0.18.37-ENG.iso, Hotfix-BIGIP-14.1.2.0.32.37-ENG.iso, Hotfix-BIGIP-14.1.2.1.0.46.4-ENG.iso, Hotfix-BIGIP-14.1.2.1.0.14.4-ENG.iso, Hotfix-BIGIP-14.1.2.1.0.16.4-ENG.iso, Hotfix-BIGIP-14.1.2.1.0.34.4-ENG.iso, Hotfix-BIGIP-14.1.2.1.0.97.4-ENG.iso, Hotfix-BIGIP-14.1.2.1.0.99.4-ENG.iso, Hotfix-BIGIP-14.1.2.1.0.105.4-ENG.iso, Hotfix-BIGIP-14.1.2.1.0.111.4-ENG.iso, Hotfix-BIGIP-14.1.2.1.0.115.4-ENG.iso, Hotfix-BIGIP-14.1.2.1.0.122.4-ENG.iso, Hotfix-BIGIP-15.0.1.0.33.11-ENG.iso, Hotfix-BIGIP-15.0.1.0.48.11-ENG.iso

In F5 BIG-IP 13.0.0, 12.1.0-12.1.2, 11.6.1, 11.5.1-11.5.5, or 11.2.1 the Apache modules apache_auth_token_mod and mod_auth_f5_auth_token.cpp allow possible unauthenticated bruteforce on the em_server_ip authorization parameter to obtain which SSL client certificates used for mutual authentication between BIG-IQ or Enterprise Manager (EM) and managed BIG-IP devices.

iControl REST vulnerability CVE-2022-35728

On BIG-IP versions 16.0.0-16.0.0.1, 15.1.0-15.1.0.5, 14.1.0-14.1.2.7, 13.1.0-13.1.3.4, 12.1.0-12.1.5.2, and 11.6.1-11.6.5.2, undisclosed endpoints in iControl REST allow for a reflected XSS attack, which could lead to a complete compromise of the BIG-IP system if the victim user is granted the admin role.

On all versions of 16.1.x, 16.0.x, 15.1.x, 14.1.x, 13.1.x, 12.1.x, and 11.6.x, a reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in an undisclosed page of the BIG-IP Configuration utility that allows an attacker to execute JavaScript in the context of the currently logged-in user. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.

Similar to the issue identified in CVE-2018-12120, on versions 14.1.0-14.1.0.5, 14.0.0-14.0.0.4, 13.0.0-13.1.2, and 12.1.0-12.1.4 BIG-IP will bind a debug nodejs process to all interfaces when invoked. This may expose the process to unauthorized users if the plugin is left in debug mode and the port is accessible.
