The version of F5 Networks BIG-IP installed on the remote host is prior to 14.1.5.4 / 15.1.8.2 / 16.1.3.4 / 17.1.0. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the K000132768 advisory.

  • A directory traversal vulnerability exists in an undisclosed page of the BIG-IP Configuration utility which may allow an authenticated attacker to read files with .xml extension. Access to restricted information is limited and the attacker does not control what information is obtained. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated. (CVE-2023-28406)

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