CVE-2022-41800

In all versions of BIG-IP, when running in Appliance mode, an authenticated user assigned the Administrator role may be able to bypass Appliance mode restrictions, utilizing an undisclosed iControl REST endpoint. A successful exploit can allow the attacker to cross a security boundary. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.

This permits a user who already has an administrator account to create a shell on the target device. There are other (authorized) ways to do this, so this vulnerability is pretty minor, IMO, although if it IS exploited it grants access to a network load balancer which is kind of a big deal.
