The BIG-IP and BIG-IQ systems do not encrypt some sensitive information written to Database (DB) variables.
Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.
When TACACS+ audit forwarding is configured on a BIG-IP or BIG-IQ system, shared secret is logged in plaintext in the audit log.
Exposure of Sensitive Information vulnerability exist in an undisclosed BIG-IP TMOS shell (tmsh) command which may allow an authenticated attacker with resource administrator role privileges to view sensitive information.
Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.
Specific F5 BIG-IP platforms with Cavium Nitrox FIPS HSM cards generate a deterministic password for the Crypto User account. The predictable nature of the password allows an authenticated user with TMSH access to the BIG-IP system, or anyone with physical access to the FIPS HSM, the information required to generate the correct password. On vCMP systems, all Guests share the same deterministic password, allowing those with TMSH access on one Guest to access keys of a different Guest.
The following BIG-IP hardware platforms are affected: 10350v-F, i5820-DF, i7820-DF, i15820-DF, 5250v-F, 7200v-F, 10200v-F, 6900-F, 8900-F, 11000-F, and 11050-F.
The BIG-IP rSeries r5920-DF and r10920-DF are not affected, nor does the issue affect software FIPS implementations or network HSM configurations.
Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.
A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in an undisclosed page of the BIG-IP Configuration utility that allows an attacker to run JavaScript in the context of the currently logged-in user.
An authenticated attacker with guest privileges or higher can cause the iControl SOAP process to terminate by sending undisclosed requests.
A directory traversal vulnerability exists in an undisclosed page of the BIG-IP Configuration utility that may allow an authenticated attacker to read files with an .xml extension. Access to restricted information is limited and the attacker does not control what information is obtained.

On BIG-IP versions 15.0.0-15.0.1, 14.1.0-14.1.2.2, 14.0.0-14.0.1, and 13.1.0-13.1.3.1, the TMM process may restart when the packet filter feature is enabled.
On BIG-IP 15.0.0-15.0.1, 14.1.0-14.1.2, 14.0.0-14.0.1, 13.1.0-13.1.3.1, 12.1.0-12.1.5, and 11.5.1-11.6.5, vCMP hypervisors are incorrectly exposing the plaintext unit key for their vCMP guests on the filesystem.
A race condition which may occur when discarding malformed packets can result in BIND exiting due to a REQUIRE assertion failure in dispatch.c. Versions affected: BIND 9.11.0 -> 9.11.7, 9.12.0 -> 9.12.4-P1, 9.14.0 -> 9.14.2. Also all releases of the BIND 9.13 development branch and version 9.15.0 of the BIND 9.15 development branch and BIND Supported Preview Edition versions 9.11.3-S1 -> 9.11.7-S1.
In BIG-IP 15.0.0, 14.1.0-14.1.0.6, 14.0.0-14.0.0.5, 13.0.0-13.1.1.5, 12.1.0-12.1.4.1, 11.5.1-11.6.4, BIG-IQ 7.0.0, 6.0.0-6.1.0,5.2.0-5.4.0, iWorkflow 2.3.0, and Enterprise Manager 3.1.1, the Configuration utility login page may not follow best security practices when handling a malicious request.
On BIG-IP 14.1.0-14.1.0.5, 14.0.0-14.0.0.4, 13.0.0-13.1.2, 12.1.0-12.1.4.1, 11.5.2-11.6.4, when processing authentication attempts for control-plane users MCPD leaks a small amount of memory. Under rare conditions attackers with access to the management interface could eventually deplete memory on the system.
On BIG-IP 14.1.0-14.1.0.5, 14.0.0-14.0.0.4, 13.0.0-13.1.1.4, 12.1.0-12.1.4, 11.6.1-11.6.3.4, and 11.5.1-11.5.8, SNMP exposes sensitive configuration objects over insecure transmission channels. This issue is exposed when a passphrase is inserted into various profile types and accessed using SNMPv2.
On BIG-IP 14.1.0-14.1.0.5 and 14.0.0-14.0.0.4, Malformed http requests made to an undisclosed iControl REST endpoint can lead to infinite loop of the restjavad process.
On BIG-IP 14.1.0-14.1.0.5, 14.0.0-14.0.0.4, 13.0.0-13.1.1.4, and 12.1.0-12.1.4, a high volume of malformed analytics report requests leads to instability in restjavad process. This causes issues with both iControl REST and some portions of TMUI. The attack requires an authenticated user with any role.
On BIG-IP 14.1.0-14.1.0.5, 14.0.0-14.0.0.4, 13.0.0-13.1.1.4, 12.1.0-12.1.4, 11.6.1-11.6.3.4, and 11.5.1-11.5.8, when the BIG-IP system is licensed for Appliance mode, a user with either the Administrator or the Resource Administrator role can bypass Appliance mode restrictions.

The attack prerequisite is direct access to encrypted configuration and/or UCS files.
