Code injection

On BIG-IP 11.5.1-11.5.4, 11.6.1, and 12.1.0, a virtual server configured with a Client SSL profile may be vulnerable to a chosen ciphertext attack against CBC ciphers. When exploited, this may result in plaintext recovery of encrypted messages through a man-in-the-middle MITM attack, despite the...

CVE-2019-6593

CVE-2019-6593 affects BIG-IP TMM TLS/Client SSL CBC-mode sessions on versions 11.5.1–11.5.4, 11.6.1 and 12.1.0, enabling plaintext recovery via a chosen-ciphertext MITM without server private-key access. F5 advisory K10065173 documents affected branches: 12.x vulnerable in 12.1.0 with fixes in 12...

Linux: MAC algorithms

This variable limits the types of MAC algorithms that SSH can use during communication. MD5 and 96-bit MAC algorithms are considered weak and have been shown to increase exploitability in SSH downgrade attacks. Weak algorithms continue to have a great deal of attention as a weak spot that can be...
