F5 : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, (Directory traversal)

A directory traversal vulnerability exists in the BIG-IP Configuration Utility that may allow an authenticated attacker to execute commands on the BIG-IP system. For BIG-IP system running in Appliance mode, a successful exploit can allow the attacker to cross a security boundary.  Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.

A directory traversal vulnerability exists in an undisclosed page of the BIG-IP Configuration utility which may allow an authenticated attacker to read files with .xml extension. Access to restricted information is limited and the attacker does not control what information is obtained.  Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.

In F5OS-A version 1.x before 1.1.0 and F5OS-C version 1.x before 1.4.0, a directory traversal vulnerability exists in an undisclosed location of the F5OS CLI that allows an attacker to read arbitrary files.

In BIG-IP Versions 16.1.x before 16.1.1 and 15.1.x before 15.1.4, when running in Appliance mode, an authenticated attacker may be able to bypass Appliance mode restrictions due to a directory traversal vulnerability in an undisclosed page within iApps. A successful exploit can allow the attacker to cross a security boundary. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.

On F5 BIG-IP 16.1.x versions prior to 16.1.2.2, 15.1.x versions prior to 15.1.5.1, 14.1.x versions prior to 14.1.4.6, 13.1.x versions prior to 13.1.5, and all versions of 12.1.x and 11.6.x, a directory traversal vulnerability exists in iControl SOAP that allows an authenticated attacker with at least guest role privileges to read wsdl files in the BIG-IP file system. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated

On F5 BIG-IP 16.1.x versions prior to 16.1.2.2, 15.1.x versions prior to 15.1.5.1, 14.1.x versions prior to 14.1.4.6, 13.1.x versions prior to 13.1.5, and all versions of 12.1.x and 11.6.x, directory traversal vulnerabilities exist in undisclosed iControl REST endpoints and TMOS Shell (tmsh) commands in F5 BIG-IP Guided Configuration, which may allow an authenticated attacker with at least resource administrator role privileges to read arbitrary files. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated

On BIG-IP, 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 directory traversal vulnerability exists in an undisclosed page of the BIG-IP Configuration utility that allows an attacker to access arbitrary files. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.

In versions 3.0.0-3.9.0, 2.0.0-2.9.0, and 1.0.1, the NGINX Controller Agent does not use absolute paths when calling system utilities.

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.

Directory traversal vulnerability in the configuration utility in F5 BIG-IP before 12.0.0 and Enterprise Manager 3.0.0 through 3.1.1 allows remote authenticated users to access arbitrary files in the web root via unspecified vectors.

Multiple directory traversal vulnerabilities in F5 BIG-IP before 10.2.2 allow local users with the "Resource Administrator" or "Administrator" role to enumerate and delete arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in the name parameter to (1) tmui/Control/jspmap/tmui/system/archive/properties.jsp or (2) tmui/Control/form.

Directory traversal vulnerability in an unspecified signed Java applet in the client-side components in F5 BIG-IP APM 10.1.0 through 10.2.4 and 11.0.0 through 11.3.0, FirePass 6.0.0 through 6.1.0 and 7.0.0, and other products "when APM is provisioned," allows remote attackers to upload and execute arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in the filename parameter.

nginx 0.8.36 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via certain encoded directory traversal sequences that trigger memory corruption, as demonstrated using the "%c0.%c0." sequence.

Directory traversal vulnerability in src/http/modules/ngx_http_dav_module.c in nginx (aka Engine X) before 0.7.63, and 0.8.x before 0.8.17, allows remote authenticated users to create or overwrite arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in the Destination HTTP header for the WebDAV (1) COPY or (2) MOVE method.

The SNMP daemon in the F5 FirePass 1200 6.0.2 hotfix 3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) by walking the hrSWInstalled OID branch in HOST-RESOURCES-MIB.

F5 FirePass 5.4 through 5.5.2 and 6.0 allows remote attackers to access restricted URLs via (1) a trailing null byte, (2) multiple leading slashes, (3) Unicode encoding, (4) URL-encoded directory traversal or same-directory characters, or (5) upper case letters in the domain name.
