PAN-OS: Improper Neutralization of Input in the Management Web Interface

An improper input neutralization vulnerability in the management web interface of the Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS® software enables an authenticated administrator to bypass system restrictions and execute arbitrary commands. The security risk posed by this issue is significantly minimized when CLI access is restricted to a limited group of administrators. Cloud NGFW and Prisma® Access are not affected by this vulnerability.

Variant candidates

Same product, same weakness class, within 18 months. If the patch missed the root cause, the sibling bug is here.

No nightly-computed relations.

Chain candidates

An authentication bypass and a privilege-requiring bug in the same product, published close together: combined they may become an unauthenticated path.
