Improper input validation in the UEFI WheaERST module for some Intel(R) reference platforms may allow an escalation of privilege. System software adversary with a privileged user combined with a high complexity attack may enable escalation of privilege. This result may potentially occur via local access when attack requirements are present without special internal knowledge and requires no user interaction. The potential vulnerability may impact the confidentiality (high), integrity (high) and availability (high) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (none) impacts.
When a client SSL profile is configured on a virtual server, undisclosed requests can cause an increase in memory resource utilization.

A vulnerability exists in the iHealth utility of the TMOS Shell (tmsh) that may allow an authenticated attacker with at least a resource administrator role to bypass tmsh restrictions and gain access to the Advanced Shell (bash). For BIG-IP systems running in Appliance mode, a successful exploit can allow the attacker to cross a security boundary.
When running in Appliance mode, a highly privileged authenticated attacker with access to Secure Copy (SCP) protocol and SFTP may be able to bypass Appliance mode restrictions using undisclosed commands.
Undisclosed traffic can cause the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) to terminate. This issue may occur when a Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) 1.2 virtual server is enabled with a Server SSL profile that is configured with a certificate, key, and the SSL Sign Hash set to ANY, and the backend server is enabled with DTLS 1.2 and client authentication. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.
When an iRule containing the HTTP::respond command is configured on a virtual server, undisclosed requests can cause an increase in memory resource utilization.
When a virtual server, network address translation (NAT) object, or secure network address translation (SNAT) object uses the embedded Packet Velocity Acceleration (ePVA) feature, and the Auto Last Hop setting is disabled, undisclosed traffic can cause the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) to terminate. The Auto Last Hop setting is enabled globally by default. For more information about the Auto Last Hop setting, refer to K13876: Overview of the Auto Last Hop setting (15.x - 17.x). To determine which BIG-IP platforms have an ePVA chip, refer to K12837: Overview of the ePVA feature.
When using a multi-bladed platform with more than one active blade, undisclosed traffic can cause the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) to terminate.
When IPsec is configured on the BIG-IP system, undisclosed traffic can cause the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) to terminate.
When DNS cache is configured on a BIG-IP or BIG-IP Next CNF virtual server, undisclosed DNS queries can cause an increase in memory resource utilization.
When a TCP profile with Multipath TCP (MPTCP) enabled is configured on a virtual server, undisclosed traffic along with conditions beyond the attacker's control can cause the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) to terminate.
A stored 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.
A vulnerability exists in an undisclosed iControl REST and BIG-IP TMOS Shell (tmsh) command that may allow an authenticated attacker with at least the resource administrator role to execute arbitrary system commands with higher privileges. A successful exploit can allow the attacker to cross a security boundary.
Accessibility. A privacy issue was addressed by removing sensitive data.
An HTTP/2 implementation flaw allows a denial-of-service (DoS) that uses malformed HTTP/2 control frames in order to break the max concurrent streams limit (HTTP/2 MadeYouReset Attack).
Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.
When a BIG-IP LTM Client SSL profile is configured on a virtual server with SSL Forward Proxy enabled and Anonymous Diffie-Hellman (ADH) ciphers enabled, undisclosed requests can cause the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) to terminate.
Allocation of resources for multipart headers with insufficient limits enabled a DoS vulnerability in Apache Commons FileUpload. This issue affects Apache Commons FileUpload: from 1.0 before 1.6; from 2.0.0-M1 before 2.0.0-M4. Users are recommended to upgrade to versions 1.6 or 2.0.0-M4, which fix the issue.

When a Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) profile is configured on a virtual server, undisclosed requests can cause an increase in memory resource utilization.
When running in Appliance mode, a command injection vulnerability exists in an undisclosed iControl REST and BIG-IP TMOS Shell (tmsh) command that may allow an authenticated attacker with administrator role privileges to execute arbitrary system commands. A successful exploit can allow the attacker to cross a security boundary.
A command injection vulnerability exists in iControl REST and the BIG-IP TMOS Shell (tmsh), which may allow an authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary system commands.
When SIP session Application Level Gateway mode (ALG) profile with Passthru Mode enabled and SIP router ALG profile are configured on a Message Routing type virtual server, undisclosed traffic can cause the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) to terminate. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.
When SNMP v1 or v2c are disabled on the BIG-IP system, undisclosed requests can cause an increase in memory resource utilization.
When a BIG-IP message routing profile is configured on a virtual server, undisclosed traffic can cause an increase in memory resource utilization.
A stored 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. This vulnerability is due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2024-31156 https://my.f5.com/manage/s/article/K000138636 .
