A vulnerability exists whereby an authenticated user can inject arbitrary shell commands using the device management command line interface. (Ref #33080)
This vulnerability can result in arbitrary command execution, and can result in total compromise of the device.
This issue affects PAN-OS 4.0.7 and earlier; PAN-OS 3.0.x is not affected.

Work around:
This issue affects the management interface of the device. Security appliance management best practices dictate that the management interface be isolated and strictly limited only to security administration personnel.
