The version of Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS running on the remote host is 11.2.x prior to 11.2.3. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability.

A command injection vulnerability in Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS software enables an authenticated     administrator to bypass system restrictions and run arbitrary commands as root on the firewall.

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.
