The version of F5 Networks BIG-IP installed on the remote host is prior to 14.1.5.5 / 15.1.9.1 / 16.1.3.5 / 17.1.0.2. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the K000133474 advisory.

  • A reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in an undisclosed page of the BIG-IP Configuration utility which allows an attacker to run JavaScript in the context of the currently logged-in user. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.
    (CVE-2023-38138)

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