QID 376615: F5 BIG-IP Application Security Manager (ASM), Local Traffic Manager (LTM), Access Policy Manager (APM) Denial of Service (DoS) Vulnerability (K52340447)
F5 BIG-IP ASM (Application Security Manager) is a flexible web application firewall that secures web applications in traditional, virtual, and private cloud environments.
F5 BIG-IP (LTM) Local Traffic Manager is the most popular module offered on F5 Networks BiG-IP platform. The real power of the LTM is it is a Full Proxy, allowing you to augment client and server side connections. All while making informed load balancing decisions on availability, performance, and persistence.
F5 BIG-IP Access Policy Manager (APM) is a secure, flexible, high-performance solution that provides unified global access to your network, cloud, and applications.
Traffic is disrupted while the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) process restarts. This vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial-of-service (DoS) on the BIG-IP system. There is no control plane exposure; this is a data plane issue only. CGNAT deployments are more likely to be affected. VCMP guests running on embedded Packet Velocity Acceleration (ePVA) platforms provisioned with only 2 CPU cores are not vulnerable.
Vulnerable Component:
BIG-IP APM,ASM,LTM
Affected Versions:
16.1.0 - 16.1.2
15.1.0 - 15.1.5
14.1.0 - 14.1.4
13.1.0 - 13.1.4
QID Detection Logic(Authenticated):
This QID checks for the vulnerable versions of F5 BIG-IP devices using the tmsh command.
