On versions 15.0.0-15.0.1.1, 14.0.0-14.1.2.2, 13.1.0-13.1.3.1, 12.1.0-12.1.5, and 11.5.2-11.6.5.1, under certain conditions, a multi-bladed BIG-IP Virtual Clustered Multiprocessing (vCMP) may drop broadcast packets when they are rebroadcast to the vCMP guest secondary blades. An attacker can leverage the fragmented broadcast IP packets to perform any type of fragmentation-based attack.
On BIG-IP versions 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 11.5.2-11.6.5.1, users with access to edit iRules are able to create iRules which can lead to an elevation of privilege, configuration modification, and arbitrary system command execution.
On BIG-IP versions 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 11.5.2-11.6.5 and BIG-IQ versions 6.0.0-6.1.0 and 5.2.0-5.4.0, a user is able to obtain the secret that was being used to encrypt a BIG-IP UCS backup file while sending SNMP query to the BIG-IP or BIG-IQ system, however the user can not access to the UCS files.
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 versions 15.0.0-15.0.1, 14.0.0-14.1.2.2, and 13.1.0-13.1.3.1, TMM may restart on BIG-IP Virtual Edition (VE) when using virtio direct descriptors and packets 2 KB or larger.
Versions of lodash lower than 4.17.12 are vulnerable to Prototype Pollution. The function defaultsDeep could be tricked into adding or modifying properties of Object.prototype using a constructor payload.
In Wireshark 3.0.0 to 3.0.1, 2.6.0 to 2.6.8, and 2.4.0 to 2.4.14, the dissection engine could crash. This was addressed in epan/packet.c by restricting the number of layers and consequently limiting recursion.
The Linux kernel, versions 3.9+, is vulnerable to a denial of service attack with low rates of specially modified packets targeting IP fragment re-assembly. An attacker may cause a denial of service condition by sending specially crafted IP fragments. Various vulnerabilities in IP fragmentation have been discovered and fixed over the years. The current vulnerability (CVE-2018-5391) became exploitable in the Linux kernel with the increase of the IP fragment reassembly queue size.
The inode_init_owner function in fs/inode.c in the Linux kernel through 3.16 allows local users to create files with an unintended group ownership, in a scenario where a directory is SGID to a certain group and is writable by a user who is not a member of that group. Here, the non-member can trigger creation of a plain file whose group ownership is that group. The intended behavior was that the non-member can trigger creation of a directory (but not a plain file) whose group ownership is that group. The non-member can escalate privileges by making the plain file executable and SGID.
