An authenticated iControl REST user with at least guest role privileges can cause processing delays to iControl REST requests via undisclosed requests. (CVE-2022-1468)

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 - 13.1.5
12.1.0 - 12.1.6
11.6.1 - 11.6.5

QID Detection Logic(Authenticated):
This QID checks for the vulnerable versions of F5 BIG-IP devices using the tmsh command.

Processing delays to iControl REST requests can occur until the iControl REST daemon is either forced to restart or manually restarted. This vulnerability allows a remote authenticated attacker to cause a degradation of service that can lead to a denial-of-service (DoS) on the iControl REST daemon. There is no data plane exposure; this is a control plane issue only.
