When a BIG-IP APM Access Policy is configured on a virtual server, undisclosed traffic can cause TMM to terminate.
Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.
When a virtual server, network address translation (NAT) object, or secure network address translation (SNAT) object uses the embedded Packet Velocity Acceleration (ePVA) feature, undisclosed traffic can cause the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) to terminate. To determine which BIG-IP platforms have an ePVA chip refer to K12837: Overview of the ePVA feature https://my.f5.com/manage/s/article/K12837 . Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.
When running in Appliance mode, a highly privileged authenticated attacker with access to SCP and SFTP may be able to bypass Appliance mode restrictions using undisclosed commands. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.
When BIG-IP SSL Orchestrator is enabled, 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 an iRule containing the HTTP::respond command is configured on a virtual server, undisclosed requests can cause an increase in memory resource utilization. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.
When the BIG-IP system is configured as both a Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) service provider (SP) and Identity Provider (IdP), with single logout (SLO) enabled on an access policy, undisclosed requests can cause an increase in memory resource utilization. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.
When SNMP is configured on F5OS Appliance and Chassis systems, undisclosed requests can cause an increase in SNMP memory resource utilization. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.
In NetX Duo version before 6.4.4, the component of Eclipse Foundation ThreadX, there was a potential out of bound read in _nx_secure_tls_process_clienthello() because of a missing validation of PSK length provided in the user message.
This issue affects Apache Spark versions before 3.4.4, 3.5.2 and 4.0.0.
Apache Spark versions before 4.0.0, 3.5.2 and 3.4.4 use an insecure default network encryption cipher for RPC communication between nodes.
When spark.network.crypto.enabled is set to true (it is set to false by default), but spark.network.crypto.cipher is not explicitly configured, Spark defaults to AES in CTR mode (AES/CTR/NoPadding), which provides encryption without authentication.
This vulnerability allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to modify encrypted RPC traffic undetected by flipping bits in ciphertext, potentially compromising heartbeat messages or application data and affecting the integrity of Spark workflows.
To mitigate this issue, users should either configure spark.network.crypto.cipher to AES/GCM/NoPadding to enable authenticated encryption or
enable SSL encryption by setting spark.ssl.enabled to true, which provides stronger transport security.
In Eclipse ThreadX before 6.4.3, when memory protection is enabled, syscall parameters verification wasn't enough, allowing an attacker to obtain an arbitrary memory read/write.
