The version of F5 Networks BIG-IP installed on the remote host is prior to 14.1.5.6 / 15.1.10.2 / 16.1.4 / 17.1.0.3 / 17.1.1. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the K000132563 advisory.

  • An insufficient verification of data vulnerability exists in BIG-IP Edge Client for Windows and macOS that may allow an attacker to modify its configured server list. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated. (CVE-2023-36858)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
