Security Advisory Description
When a UDP profile with Idle Timeout set to Immediate or the value 0 is configured on a virtual server, undisclosed traffic can cause the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) to terminate. (CVE-2023-29163)
Impact
Traffic is disrupted while the TMM process restarts. This vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to cause a denial-of-service (DoS) on the BIG-IP system. There is no control plane exposure; this is a data plane issue only.
The default value for the Idle Timeout setting is60.
