A fundamental design flaw within the RADIUS protocol has been proven to be exploitable, compromising the integrity in the RADIUS Access-Request process. The attack allows a malicious user to modify packets in a way that would be indistinguishable to a RADIUS client or server. To be successful, the attacker must have the ability to inject themselves between the client and server.

1 / 6
Source: FortiGuard

Remedy

Disable the use of RADIUS/UDP and RADIUS/TCP - instead RADIUS/TLS or RADIUS/DTLS should be used.

Remedy

TBD

Remedy

The best way to address this issue is by using encrypted and authenticated channels that offer modern cryptographic security guarantees. Configure an alternate authentication mechanism if you are using RADIUS with a CHAP or PAP authentication protocol. PAN-OS provides the following alternate RADIUS authentication mechanisms: PEAP-MSCHAPv2 (default), PEAP with GTC, and EAP-TTLS with PAP. For more information, please see https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/pan-os/11-1/pan-os-admin/authentication/configure-radius-authentication. In addition, instead of using RADIUS, you can configure an alternate authentication mechanism using one of the options described here: https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/pan-os/11-1/pan-os-admin/authentication. If you are a Prisma Access customer using a RADIUS configuration with PAP or CHAP in your profile and have not applied one of the changes described above, please reach out to TAC/CS to schedule an upgrade window. PAN-OS 9.1.19, PAN-OS 10.1.14, PAN-OS 10.2.10, PAN-OS 11.0.7, PAN-OS 11.1.3, and all later PAN-OS versions add a new feature to enforce an authentication check in RADIUS. This new feature is disabled by default to match the existing behavior. To enable this feature, run the following commands: > set auth radius-require-msg-authentic yes To confirm that the setting was correctly enabled, run the following command: > show auth radius-require-msg-authentic If set correctly, the response will say "yes". This setting is persistent across reboots. No ‘commit’ is required for this to take effect. Please note that this feature requires that the RADIUS server has been updated to support the new protocol changes, as detailed in https://kb.cert.org/vuls/id/456537. If your RADIUS authentication breaks when radius-require-msg-authentic is set to yes, please work with your RADIUS server vendor for support with the RADIUS server upgrade process.

A reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the GlobalProtect™ gateway and portal features of Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS® software enables execution of malicious JavaScript in the context of an authenticated Captive Portal user's browser when they click on a specially crafted link. The primary risk is phishing attacks that can lead to credential theft—particularly if you enabled Clientless VPN.

There is no availability impact to GlobalProtect features or GlobalProtect users. Attackers cannot use this vulnerability to tamper with or modify contents or configurations of the GlobalProtect portal or gateways. The integrity impact of this vulnerability is limited to enabling an attacker to create phishing and credential-stealing links that appear to be hosted on the GlobalProtect portal.

For GlobalProtect users with Clientless VPN enabled, there is a limited impact on confidentiality due to inherent risks of Clientless VPN that facilitate credential theft. You can read more about this risk in the informational bulletin PAN-SA-2025-0005 https://security.paloaltonetworks.com/PAN-SA-2025-0005 https://security.paloaltonetworks.com/PAN-SA-2025-0005 . There is no impact to confidentiality for GlobalProtect users if you did not enable (or you disable) Clientless VPN.

Remedy

Customers with a Threat Prevention subscription can block attacks for this vulnerability by enabling Threat ID 510003 and 510004 from Applications and Threats content version 8995. For all Cloud NGFW, PAN-OS, and Prisma Access deployments, it is crucial to ensure that Vulnerability Protection profiles are explicitly applied to the security rules that process traffic from GlobalProtect interfaces. This ensures the Threat Prevention signatures are actively enforced. For detailed guidance on applying Vulnerability Protection to GlobalProtect interfaces, please refer to: https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/globalprotect-articles/applying-vulnerability-protection-to-globalprotect-interfaces/ta-p/340184. You can also disable Clientless VPN to reduce impact in the event of exploitation, though this will not block the exploit in it's entirety. For more information, review the security advisory PAN-SA-2025-0005 (https://security.paloaltonetworks.com/PAN-SA-2025-0005). Previous versions of this advisory have listed the recommended content version as 8970 and 8990.

An improper input neutralization vulnerability in the management web interface of the Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS® software enables an authenticated administrator to bypass system restrictions and execute arbitrary commands.

The security risk posed by this issue is significantly minimized when CLI access is restricted to a limited group of administrators.

Cloud NGFW and Prisma® Access are not affected by this vulnerability.

A command injection vulnerability in Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS® enables an authenticated administrative user to perform actions as the root user.

The attacker must have network access to the management web interface and successfully authenticate to exploit this issue.

Cloud NGFW and Prisma Access are not impacted by this vulnerability.

Remedy

Recommended mitigation—The vast majority of firewalls already follow Palo Alto Networks and industry best practices. However, if you have not already, we strongly recommend that you secure access to your management interface according to our critical deployment guidelines (https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/community-blogs/tips-amp-tricks-how-to-secure-the-management-access-of-your-palo/ba-p/464431). Specifically, you should restrict management interface access to only trusted internal IP addresses. Review more information about how to secure management access to your Palo Alto Networks firewalls in these documents: * Palo Alto Networks LIVEcommunity article: https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/community-blogs/tips-amp-tricks-how-to-secure-the-management-access-of-your-palo/ba-p/464431 * Palo Alto Networks official and detailed technical documentation: https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/best-practices/10-1/administrative-access-best-practices/administrative-access-best-practices/deploy-administrative-access-best-practices
