Description Preview

An authentication bypass in the Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS software enables an unauthenticated attacker with network access to the management web interface to bypass the authentication otherwise required by the PAN-OS management web interface and invoke certain PHP scripts. While invoking these PHP scripts does not enable remote code execution, it can negatively impact the integrity and confidentiality of PAN-OS. The risk is greatest if access to the management interface is enabled from the internet or any untrusted network. To mitigate this risk, it is recommended to restrict access to the management web interface to only trusted internal IP addresses.
