When running in Appliance mode, an authenticated user assigned the Administrator role may be able to bypass Appliance mode restrictions, utilizing BIG-IP external monitor on a BIG-IP system.  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.

An authenticated user's session cookie may remain valid for a limited time after logging out from the BIG-IP Configuration utility on a multi-blade VIPRION platform.  Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.

The Diffie-Hellman Key Agreement Protocol allows remote attackers (from the client side) to send arbitrary numbers that are actually not public keys, and trigger expensive server-side DHE modular-exponentiation calculations, aka a D(HE)at or D(HE)ater attack. The client needs very little CPU resources and network bandwidth. The attack may be more disruptive in cases where a client can require a server to select its largest supported key size. The basic attack scenario is that the client must claim that it can only communicate with DHE, and the server must be configured to allow DHE.

In BIG-IP versions 15.1.0-15.1.0.4, 15.0.0-15.0.1.3, 14.1.0-14.1.2.3, 13.1.0-13.1.3.3, 12.1.0-12.1.5.1, and 11.6.1-11.6.5.1, an undisclosed TMUI page contains a vulnerability which allows a stored XSS when BIG-IP systems are setup in a device trust.

On BIG-IP versions 15.0.0-15.1.0, 14.0.0-14.1.2.3, 13.1.0-13.1.3.2, 12.1.0-12.1.5, and 11.5.2-11.6.5.1, BIG-IQ versions 7.0.0, 6.0.0-6.1.0, and 5.0.0-5.4.0, iWorkflow version 2.3.0, and Enterprise Manager version 3.1.1, authenticated users granted TMOS Shell (tmsh) privileges are able access objects on the file system which would normally be disallowed by tmsh restrictions. This allows for authenticated, low privileged attackers to access objects on the file system which would not normally be allowed.

On versions 15.0.0-15.0.1, 14.0.0-14.1.2.2, and 13.1.0-13.1.3.1, TMM may restart on BIG-IP Virtual Edition (VE) when using virtio direct descriptors and packets 2 KB or larger.

The BIG-IP 15.0.0-15.0.1, 14.0.0-14.1.2.2, 13.1.0-13.1.3.1, 12.1.0-12.1.5, and 11.5.1-11.6.5.1, BIG-IQ 7.0.0, 6.0.0-6.1.0, and 5.2.0-5.4.0, iWorkflow 2.3.0, and Enterprise Manager 3.1.1 configuration utility is vulnerable to Anti DNS Pinning (DNS Rebinding) attack.

On version 14.0.0-14.1.0.1, BIG-IP virtual servers with TLSv1.3 enabled may experience a denial of service due to undisclosed incoming messages.

By design, BIND is intended to limit the number of TCP clients that can be connected at any given time. The number of allowed connections is a tunable parameter which, if unset, defaults to a conservative value for most servers. Unfortunately, the code which was intended to limit the number of simultaneous connections contained an error which could be exploited to grow the number of simultaneous connections beyond this limit. Versions affected: BIND 9.9.0 -> 9.10.8-P1, 9.11.0 -> 9.11.6, 9.12.0 -> 9.12.4, 9.14.0. BIND 9 Supported Preview Edition versions 9.9.3-S1 -> 9.11.5-S3, and 9.11.5-S5. Versions 9.13.0 -> 9.13.7 of the 9.13 development branch are also affected. Versions prior to BIND 9.9.0 have not been evaluated for vulnerability to CVE-2018-5743.

The OSPFv3 parser in tcpdump before 4.9.3 has a buffer over-read in print-ospf6.c:ospf6_print_lshdr().

The FRF.16 parser in tcpdump before 4.9.3 has a buffer over-read in print-fr.c:mfr_print().

On versions 14.0.0-14.1.2, 13.0.0-13.1.3, 12.1.0-12.1.5, and 11.5.1-11.6.5, the BIG-IP system fails to perform Martian Address Filtering (As defined in RFC 1812 section 5.3.7) on the control plane (management interface). This may allow attackers on an adjacent system to force BIG-IP into processing packets with spoofed source addresses.

On BIG-IP 14.1.0-14.1.0.5, 14.0.0-14.0.0.5, 13.0.0-13.1.1.4, 12.1.0-12.1.4.1, and 11.5.1-11.6.4, an undisclosed iControl REST worker is vulnerable to command injection by an administrator or resource administrator user. This attack is only exploitable on multi-bladed systems.

On BIG-IP 14.1.0-14.1.0.5, 14.0.0-14.0.0.5, 13.0.0-13.1.1.4, 12.1.0-12.1.4.1, and 11.5.1-11.6.4 and BIG-IQ 6.0.0-6.1.0 and 5.1.0-5.4.0, an undisclosed iControl REST worker vulnerable to command injection for an Administrator user.

In BIG-IP 15.0.0, 14.0.0-14.1.0.5, 13.0.0-13.1.1.5, 12.1.0-12.1.4.2, and 11.5.2-11.6.4, BIG-IQ 6.0.0-6.1.0 and 5.1.0-5.4.0, iWorkflow 2.3.0, and Enterprise Manager 3.1.1, authenticated users with the ability to upload files (via scp, for example) can escalate their privileges to allow root shell access from within the TMOS Shell (tmsh) interface. The tmsh interface allows users to execute a secondary program via tools like sftp or scp.

ImageMagick before 7.0.8-50 has a "use of uninitialized value" vulnerability in the function ReadCUTImage in coders/cut.c.

Jonathan Looney discovered that the TCP retransmission queue implementation in tcp_fragment in the Linux kernel could be fragmented when handling certain TCP Selective Acknowledgment (SACK) sequences. A remote attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. This has been fixed in stable kernel releases 4.4.182, 4.9.182, 4.14.127, 4.19.52, 5.1.11, and is fixed in commit f070ef2ac66716357066b683fb0baf55f8191a2e.

Jonathan Looney discovered that the TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->tcp_gso_segs value was subject to an integer overflow in the Linux kernel when handling TCP Selective Acknowledgments (SACKs). A remote attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. This has been fixed in stable kernel releases 4.4.182, 4.9.182, 4.14.127, 4.19.52, 5.1.11, and is fixed in commit 3b4929f65b0d8249f19a50245cd88ed1a2f78cff.

On BIG-IP 14.0.0-14.1.0.1, 13.0.0-13.1.1.4, and 12.1.0-12.1.4, the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) may restart when a virtual server has an HTTP/2 profile with Application Layer Protocol Negotiation (ALPN) enabled and it processes traffic where the ALPN extension size is zero.

On BIG-IP 14.0.0-14.1.0.1, 13.0.0-13.1.1.4, 12.1.0-12.1.4, 11.6.1-11.6.3.4, and 11.5.2-11.5.8, users with the Resource Administrator role can modify sensitive portions of the filesystem if provided Advanced Shell Access, such as editing /etc/passwd. This allows modifications to user objects and is contrary to our definition for the Resource Administrator (RA) role restrictions.
