"The version of Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS running on the remote host is 10.2.x prior to 10.2.7-h21 or 11.0.x prior to 11.0.6
or 11.1.x prior to 11.1.4-h9. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability.

    A null pointer dereference vulnerability in the GlobalProtect gateway in Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS
    software enables an unauthenticated attacker to stop the GlobalProtect service on the firewall by sending
    a specially crafted packet that causes a denial of service (DoS) condition. Repeated attempts to trigger
    this condition result in the firewall entering maintenance mode.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the PAN-OS security advisory.

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