Security Advisory Description

The SQL injection vulnerability in the Configuration utility is related to the BIG-IP AFM system. (CVE-2017-0304 )

Impact

An attacker can exploit this vulnerability regardless of the BIG-IP AFM provisioning configuration; however, exploiting this vulnerability does not impact traffic processing or the live firewall rules used in the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM). The impacts are as follows:

• If the BIG-IP AFM system is or has been provisioned, a copy of the configured firewall rules may be tampered with and impact the BIG-IP AFM Configuration utility until the rules are resynchronized.
