An authentication bypass in Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS software enables an unauthenticated attacker with
network access to the management web interface to gain PAN-OS administrator privileges to perform
administrative actions, tamper with the configuration, or exploit other authenticated privilege escalation
vulnerabilities like [CVE-2024-9474](https://security.paloaltonetworks.com/CVE-2024-9474).
The risk of this issue is greatly reduced if you secure access to the management web interface by
restricting access to only trusted internal IP addresses according to our recommended[best practice
deployment guidelines](https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/community-blogs/tips-amp-tricks-how-to-secure-
the-management-access-of-your-palo/ba-p/464431).
This issue is applicable only to PAN-OS 10.2, PAN-OS 11.0, PAN-OS 11.1, and PAN-OS 11.2 software on PA-
Series, VM-Series, and CN-Series firewalls and on Panorama (virtual and M-Series).
Cloud NGFW and Prisma Access are not impacted by this vulnerability.
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the PAN-OS security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
