QID 731372: Palo Alto Networks (PAN-OS) Firewall Denial of Service (DoS) when GTP Security is Disabled Vulnerability (PAN-221224)

PAN OS is the software that runs all Palo Alto Networks next-generation firewalls.

A packet processing mechanism in Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS software enables a remote attacker to reboot hardware-based firewalls. Repeated attacks eventually cause the firewall to enter maintenance mode, which requires manual intervention to bring the firewall back online.

Affected Versions:
PAN-OS 11.0 versions earlier than PAN-OS 11.0.3
PAN-OS 10.2 versions earlier than PAN-OS 10.2.8
PAN-OS 10.1 versions earlier than PAN-OS 10.1.12
PAN-OS 9.1 versions earlier than PAN-OS 9.1.17
PAN-OS 9.0 versions earlier than PAN-OS 9.0.17-h4
