The Palo Alto PAN-OS versions prior to 11.1.2-h3 are vulnerable to command injection and arbitrary file creation. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary commands and create files on the target system. This vulnerability has been assigned the CVE ID CVE-2024-3400.
This module exploits a chain of vulnerabilities in Palo Alto Networks products running PAN-OS versions prior to 6.1.19, 7.0.19, 7.1.14, and 8.0.6. This chain starts by using an authentication bypass flaw to exploit an XML injection issue, which is then abused to create an arbitrary directory, and finally gains root code execution by exploiting a vulnerable cron script. This module uses an initial reverse TLS callback to stage arbitrary payloads on the target appliance. The cron job used for the final payload runs every 15 minutes by default and exploitation can take up to 20 minutes.
An OS Command Injection vulnerability in the PAN-OS management interface that allows authenticated administrators to execute arbitrary OS commands with root privileges.
Palo Alto Network PAN-OS and Panorama before 6.1.19, 7.0.x before 7.0.19, 7.1.x before 7.1.14, and 8.0.x before 8.0.6 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via vectors involving the management interface.
The root_reboot utility is setuid root, but performs multiple calls to system() with attacker controlled data, which is trivially exploitable. An attacker can use the 'reason' parameter to inject malicious commands, which will be executed with root privileges.
