A vulnerability was found in OpenSSL 1.0.2. When an application encounters a fatal protocol error and then calls SSLshutdown() twice, OpenSSL can respond differently to the calling application if a 0 byte record is received with invalid padding compared to if a 0 byte record is received with an invalid MAC. This difference in behaviour can be detected by a remote peer, then this amounts to a padding oracle that could be used to decrypt data. In order for this to be exploitable "non-stitched" ciphersuites must be in use. Also the application must call SSLshutdown() twice even if a protocol error has occurred (applications should not do this but some do anyway). AEAD ciphersuites are not impacted. This issue does not impact OpenSSL 1.1.1 or 1.1.0.

A cross-site scripting vulnerability was discovered in bootstrap. If an attacker could control the data given to tooltip or popover, they could inject HTML or Javascript into the rendered page when tooltip or popover events fired.

An authenticated attacker's undisclosed requests to BIG-IP iControl REST can lead to an information leak of BIG-IP local user account names.  Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.

When running in Appliance mode, a directory traversal vulnerability exists in an undisclosed iControl REST endpoint that may allow an authenticated attacker with administrator role privileges to cross a security boundary and delete files.  Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.

When BIG-IP DNS is provisioned, a vulnerability exists in the gtmadd and bigipadd iControl REST commands that return the ssh-password parameter in cleartext in the iControl REST response and is also logged in the audit log. This may allow a highly privileged, authenticated attacker with access to the audit log to view sensitive information.  Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated

When configured, IP-based access restrictions for httpd do not cover all endpoints, which may allow connections from blocked addresses.  Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.

When Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) is configured in Static and Dynamic routing protocols, undisclosed traffic can cause the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) to stop processing BFD packets and cause the configured routing protocol to fail over.  Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.

Sensitive information disclosure vulnerability exists in the undisclosed iControl REST endpoint and 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.

A cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability exists in the dashboard of the BIG-IP Configuration utility.  Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.

A vulnerability exists in iControl SOAP where an authenticated attacker with the Resource Administrator or Administrator role can download sensitive files.  Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.

When BIG-IP DNS is provisioned, a vulnerability exists in an undisclosed TMOS Shell (tmsh) command that may allow a highly privileged authenticated attacker to view sensitive information.  Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.

When running in Appliance mode, an authenticated attacker assigned the Administrator role may be able to bypass Appliance mode restrictions utilizing iAppsLX templates on a BIG-IP system.  Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated

BIG-IP or BIG-IQ Resource Administrators and Certificate Managers who have access to the secure copy (scp) utility but do not have access to Advanced Shell (bash) can execute arbitrary commands with a specially crafted command string. This vulnerability is due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2020-5873.

In BIG-IP versions 17.0.x before 17.0.0.1, 16.1.x before 16.1.3.1, 15.1.x before 15.1.7, 14.1.x before 14.1.5.1, and all versions of 13.1.x, and BIG-IQ all versions of 8.x and 7.x, an authenticated iControl REST user can cause an increase in memory resource utilization, via undisclosed requests.

In BIG-IP versions 16.1.x before 16.1.3, 15.1.x before 15.1.6.1, 14.1.x before 14.1.5, and all versions of 13.1.x, and BIG-IQ versions 8.x before 8.2.0.1 and all versions of 7.x, when an SSL key is imported on a BIG-IP or BIG-IQ system, undisclosed input can cause MCPD to terminate.

On impacted versions and platforms the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) system integrity check cannot detect modifications to specific system components. This issue only impacts specific engineering hotfixes and platforms. NOTE: This vulnerability does not affect any of the BIG-IP major, minor or maintenance releases you obtained from downloads.f5.com. The affected Engineering Hotfix builds are as follows: Hotfix-BIGIP-14.1.0.2.0.45.4-ENG Hotfix-BIGIP-14.1.0.2.0.62.4-ENG

On BIG-IP 15.0.0-15.0.1.1, 14.1.0-14.1.2.2, 14.0.0-14.0.1, 13.1.0-13.1.3.1, 12.1.0-12.1.5, and 11.6.0-11.6.5.1, the tmm crashes under certain circumstances when using the connector profile if a specific sequence of connections are made.

A local file vulnerability exists in the F5 BIG-IP Configuration utility on versions 13.0.0, 12.1.0-12.1.2, 11.6.1-11.6.3.1, 11.5.1-11.5.5, or 11.2.1 that exposes files containing F5-provided data only and do not include any configuration data, proxied traffic, or other potentially sensitive customer data.

On F5 BIG-IP 13.0.0, 12.0.0-12.1.2, 11.6.1-11.6.3.1, 11.5.1-11.5.5, or 11.2.1, when processing DIAMETER transactions with carefully crafted attribute-value pairs, TMM may crash.

On F5 BIG-IP 12.1.0-12.1.3.1, 11.6.1-11.6.3.1, 11.5.1-11.5.5, or 11.2.1, carefully crafted URLs can be used to reflect arbitrary content into GeoIP lookup responses, potentially exposing clients to XSS.

On an F5 BIG-IP 13.0.0-13.1.0.5, 12.1.0-12.1.3.1, or 11.2.1-11.6.3.1 system configured in Appliance mode, the TMOS Shell (tmsh) may allow an administrative user to use the dig utility to gain unauthorized access to file system resources.

On F5 BIG-IP 13.0.0-13.1.0.5 or 12.0.0-12.1.3.3, malicious root users with access to a VCMP guest can cause a disruption of service on adjacent VCMP guests running on the same host. Exploiting this vulnerability causes the vCMPd process on the adjacent VCMP guest to restart and produce a core file. This issue is only exploitable on a VCMP guest which is operating in "host-only" or "bridged" mode. VCMP guests which are "isolated" are not impacted by this issue and do not provide mechanism to exploit the vulnerability. Guests which are deployed in "Appliance Mode" may be impacted however the exploit is not possible from an Appliance Mode guest. To exploit this vulnerability root access on a guest system deployed as "host-only" or "bridged" mode is required.

On F5 BIG-IP 13.0.0-13.1.0.5, 12.1.0-12.1.3.3, or 11.2.1-11.6.3.1, administrative users by way of undisclosed methods can exploit the ssldump utility to write to arbitrary file paths. For users who do not have Advanced Shell access (for example, any user when licensed for Appliance Mode), this allows more permissive file access than intended.

On F5 BIG-IP 13.0.0-13.1.0.5, 12.1.0-12.1.2, or 11.2.1-11.6.3.1, Enterprise Manager 3.1.1, BIG-IQ Centralized Management 5.0.0-5.4.0 or 4.6.0, BIG-IQ Cloud and Orchestration 1.0.0, or F5 iWorkflow 2.0.2-2.3.0, authenticated users granted TMOS Shell (tmsh) access can access objects on the file system which would normally be disallowed by tmsh restrictions. This allows for authenticated, low privileged attackers to exfiltrate objects on the file system which should not be allowed.

On F5 BIG-IP 13.0.0-13.1.0.5, using RADIUS authentication responses from a RADIUS server with IPv6 addresses may cause TMM to crash, leading to a failover event.

A flaw was found in computer hardware of the Intel microprocessors related to the instruction-side TLB (Translation Lookaside Buffer) that caches translations from guest (and host) virtual addresses into physical addresses.

This is a software fix that attempts to prevent exploitation of the hardware through preventing a hacker from creating an exploitable condition
