On BIG-IP 14.0.0-14.0.0.2, 13.0.0-13.1.1.1, or 12.1.0-12.1.3.6, malicious requests made to virtual servers with an HTTP profile can cause the TMM to restart. The issue is exposed with the non-default "normalize URI" configuration options used in iRules and/or BIG-IP LTM policies.

In BIG-IP 14.0.0-14.0.0.2, 13.1.0.4-13.1.1.1, or 12.1.3.4-12.1.3.6, If an MPTCP connection receives an abort signal while the initial flow is not the primary flow, the initial flow will remain after the closing procedure is complete. TMM may restart and produce a core file as a result of this condition.

In F5 BIG-IP APM 13.0.0-13.1.1.1, APM Client 7.1.5-7.1.6, and/or Edge Client 7101-7160, the BIG-IP APM Edge Client component loads the policy library with user permission and bypassing the endpoint checks.

On F5 BIG-IP 13.0.0-13.1.1.1 and 12.1.0-12.1.3.6, there is a reflected Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in an undisclosed Configuration Utility page.

On F5 BIG-IP 13.0.0-13.1.1.1 and 12.1.0-12.1.3.6, a reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in an undisclosed page of the BIG-IP Configuration utility that allows an authenticated user to execute JavaScript for the currently logged-in user.

The Linux kernel, versions 3.9+, is vulnerable to a denial of service attack with low rates of specially modified packets targeting IP fragment re-assembly. An attacker may cause a denial of service condition by sending specially crafted IP fragments. Various vulnerabilities in IP fragmentation have been discovered and fixed over the years. The current vulnerability (CVE-2018-5391) became exploitable in the Linux kernel with the increase of the IP fragment reassembly queue size.

The inode_init_owner function in fs/inode.c in the Linux kernel through 3.16 allows local users to create files with an unintended group ownership, in a scenario where a directory is SGID to a certain group and is writable by a user who is not a member of that group. Here, the non-member can trigger creation of a plain file whose group ownership is that group. The intended behavior was that the non-member can trigger creation of a directory (but not a plain file) whose group ownership is that group. The non-member can escalate privileges by making the plain file executable and SGID.
