F5 : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, CVSS score between 6 and 6.99

The n_tty_write function in drivers/tty/n_tty.c in the Linux kernel through 3.14.3 does not properly manage tty driver access in the "LECHO & !OPOST" case, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) or gain privileges by triggering a race condition involving read and write operations with long strings.

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in F5 FirePass SSL VPN allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via (1) the xcho parameter to my.logon.php3; the (2) topblue, (3) midblue, (4) wtopblue, and certain other Custom color parameters in a per action to vdesk/admincon/index.php; the (5) h321, (6) h311, (7) h312, and certain other Front Door custom text color parameters in a per action to vdesk/admincon/index.php; the (8) ua parameter in a bro action to vdesk/admincon/index.php; the (9) app_param and (10) app_name parameters to webyfiers.php; (11) double eval functions; (12) JavaScript contained in an <FP_DO_NOT_TOUCH> element; and (13) the vhost parameter to my.activation.php. NOTE: it is possible that this candidate overlaps CVE-2006-3550.

Web Management Console Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in the web management console in F5 BIG-IP 9.4.3 allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of administrators for requests that create new administrators and execute shell commands, as demonstrated using tmui/Control/form.

nginx 0.7.64 writes data to a log file without sanitizing non-printable characters, which might allow remote attackers to modify a window's title, or possibly execute arbitrary commands or overwrite files, via an HTTP request containing an escape sequence for a terminal emulator.

Heap-based buffer overflow in compression-pointer processing in core/ngx_resolver.c in nginx before 1.0.10 allows remote resolvers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a long response.

Buffer overflow in ngx_http_mp4_module.c in the ngx_http_mp4_module module in nginx 1.0.7 through 1.0.14 and 1.1.3 through 1.1.18, when the mp4 directive is used, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory overwrite) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted MP4 file.

The STARTTLS implementation in mail/ngx_mail_smtp_handler.c in the SMTP proxy in nginx 1.5.x and 1.6.x before 1.6.1 and 1.7.x before 1.7.4 does not properly restrict I/O buffering, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to insert commands into encrypted SMTP sessions by sending a cleartext command that is processed after TLS is in place, related to a "plaintext command injection" attack, a similar issue to CVE-2011-0411.

In versions 13.0.0, 12.0.0-12.1.3, or 11.6.0-11.6.2, an F5 BIG-IP virtual server using the URL categorization feature may cause the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) to produce a core file when it receives malformed URLs during categorization.

On BIG-IP 11.5.1-11.5.8, 11.6.1-11.6.3, 12.1.0-12.1.3.6, 13.0.0-13.1.1.1, and 14.0.0-14.0.0.2, under certain conditions, hardware systems with a High-Speed Bridge and using non-default Layer 2 forwarding configurations may experience a lockup of the High-Speed Bridge.

On BIG-IP ASM 11.5.1-11.5.8, 11.6.1-11.6.3, 12.1.0-12.1.3, 13.0.0-13.1.1.3, and 14.0.0-14.0.0.2, there is a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in an ASM violation viewed in the Configuration utility. In the worst case, an attacker can store a CSRF which results in code execution as the admin user.

In BIG-IP versions 15.1.0-15.1.0.4 and 15.0.0-15.0.1.3 the Certificate Administrator user role and higher privileged roles can perform arbitrary file reads outside of the web root directory.

On versions 16.1.x before 16.1.2 and 15.1.x before 15.1.4.1, when BIG-IP APM portal access is configured on a virtual server, undisclosed requests can cause the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) to terminate. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.

On all versions of 16.1.x, 15.1.x, 14.1.x, 13.1.x, 12.1.x, and 11.6.x of F5 BIG-IP, and F5 BIG-IP Guided Configuration (GC) all versions prior to 9.0, a stored 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

A local user on F5 BIG-IQ Centralized Management 5.1.0-5.2.0 with the Access Manager role has privileges to change the passwords of other users on the system, including the local admin account password.

In versions 7.1.5-7.1.8, the BIG-IP Edge Client components in BIG-IP APM, Edge Gateway, and FirePass legacy allow attackers to obtain the full session ID from process memory.

In BIG-IP Versions 17.0.x before 17.0.0.1, 16.1.x before 16.1.3.1, 15.1.x before 15.1.6.1, 14.1.x before 14.1.5.1, and all versions of 13.1.x, certain iRules commands may allow an attacker to bypass the access control restrictions for a self IP address, regardless of the port lockdown settings. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.

BIG-IP or BIG-IQ Resource Administrators and Certificate Managers who have access to the secure copy (scp) utility but do not have access to Advanced shell (bash) can execute arbitrary commands with a specially crafted command string. This vulnerability is due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2020-5873. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated

F5 FirePass 5.4 through 5.5.1 does not properly enforce host access restrictions when a client uses a single integer (dword) representation of an IP address ("dotless IP address"), which allows remote authenticated users to connect to the FirePass administrator console and certain other network resources.

SQL injection vulnerability in the web service in F5 ARX Data Manager 3.0.0 through 3.1.0 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary SQL commands via unspecified vectors.

In F5 BIG-IP LTM, AAM, AFM, Analytics, APM, ASM, DNS, GTM, Link Controller, PEM and WebSafe software version 13.0.0, 12.1.0 - 12.1.2 and 11.5.1 - 11.6.1, an undisclosed sequence of packets, sourced from an adjacent network may cause TMM to crash.

In F5 BIG-IP 12.0.0-12.1.2, 11.6.0-11.6.1, 11.5.1-11.5.5, or 11.2.1 there is a vulnerability in TMM related to handling of invalid IP addresses.

Under certain conditions, on F5 BIG-IP ASM 13.1.0-13.1.0.5, Behavioral DOS (BADOS) protection may fail during an attack.

Improper invalidation for page table updates by a virtual guest operating system for multiple Intel(R) Processors may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable denial of service of the host system via local access.

On BIG-IP 14.0.0-14.0.0.2, 13.0.0-13.1.0.7, 12.1.0-12.1.3.5, 11.6.0-11.6.3.2, or 11.2.1-11.5.6, BIG-IQ Centralized Management 6.0.0-6.0.1, 5.0.0-5.4.0 or 4.6.0, BIG-IQ Cloud and Orchestration 1.0.0, iWorkflow 2.0.1-2.3.0, or Enterprise Manager 3.1.1 a BIG-IP user granted with tmsh access may cause the BIG-IP system to experience denial-of-service (DoS) when the BIG-IP user uses the tmsh utility to run the edit cli preference command and proceeds to save the changes to another filename repeatedly. This action utilises storage space on the /var partition and when performed repeatedly causes the /var partition to be full.

On BIG-IP 14.0.0-14.1.0.1, 13.0.0-13.1.1.4, and 12.1.0-12.1.4, internal methods used to prevent arbitrary file overwrites in Appliance Mode were not fully effective. An authenticated attacker with a high privilege level may be able to bypass protections implemented in appliance mode to overwrite arbitrary system files.
