The version of Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS running on the remote host is 7.1.x prior to 8.1.14 or 8.0.x prior to 8.1.14 or 8.1.x prior to 8.1.14 or 9.0.x prior to 9.0.9. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.

- A missing authorization vulnerability in the management
server component of PAN-OS Panorama allows a remote
unauthenticated user to inject messages into the
management server ms.log file. This vulnerability can be
leveraged to obfuscate an ongoing attack or fabricate
