In PAN-OS there are several critical bugs, which enables attackers to gain remote root access to the firewalls. <\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The vulnerability (CVE-2017-15944) has been discovered by Philip Pettersson. He has published <a href=\"http:\/\/seclists.org\/fulldisclosure\/2017\/Dec\/38\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">this Security Advisory<\/a> on securelist. org. Three different bugs in the firewall software can be combined. Then, a remote code execution attack via the web management interface. The attacker is able to gain root access without authentication.<\/p>\n<p>The following products are affected: PAN-OS 6.1.18 and earlier, PAN-OS 7.0.18 and earlier, PAN-OS 7.0.18 and earlier, PAN-OS 7.1.13 and earlier, PAN-OS 8.0.5 and earlier.
