If an application encounters a fatal protocol error and then calls SSL_shutdown() twice (once to send a close_notify, and once to receive one) then OpenSSL can respond differently to the calling application if a 0 byte record is received with invalid padding compared to if a 0 byte record is received with an invalid MAC. If the application then behaves differently based on that in a way that is detectable to the remote peer, then this amounts to a padding oracle that could be used to decrypt data. In order for this to be exploitable "non-stitched" ciphersuites must be in use. Stitched ciphersuites are optimised implementations of certain commonly used ciphersuites. Also the application must call SSL_shutdown() twice even if a protocol error has occurred (applications should not do this but some do anyway). Fixed in OpenSSL 1.0.2r (Affected 1.0.2-1.0.2q).

On the BIG-IP 2000s, 2200s, 4000s, 4200v, i5600, i5800, i7600, i7800, i10600,i10800, and VIPRION 4450 blades, running version 11.5.0, 11.5.1, 11.5.2, 11.5.3, 11.5.4, 11.6.0, 11.6.1, 12.0.0, 12.1.0, 12.1.1 or 12.1.2 of BIG-IP LTM, AAM, AFM, Analytics, ASM, DNS, GTM or PEM, an undisclosed sequence of packets sent to Virtual Servers with client or server SSL profiles may cause disruption of data plane services.

In F5 BIG-IP LTM, AAM, AFM, APM, ASM, Link Controller, PEM, PSM software version 12.0.0 to 12.1.2, 11.6.0 to 11.6.1, 11.4.0 to 11.5.4, when a virtual server uses the standard configuration of HTTP/2 or SPDY profile with Client SSL profile, and the client initiates a number of concurrent streams beyond the advertised limit can cause a disruption of service. Remote client initiating stream beyond the advertised limit can cause a disruption of service. The Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) data plane is exposed to this issue; the control plane is not exposed.

F5 BIG-IP LTM, AAM, AFM, Analytics, APM, ASM, DNS, GTM, Link Controller, PEM, Websafe software version 12.0.0 to 12.1.2, 11.6.0 to 11.6.1 are vulnerable to a denial of service attack when the MPTCP option is enabled on a virtual server. Data plane is vulnerable when using the MPTCP option of a TCP profile. There is no control plane exposure. An attacker may be able to disrupt services by causing TMM to restart hence temporarily failing to process traffic.

In F5 BIG-IP LTM, AAM, AFM, Analytics, APM, ASM, DNS, Edge Gateway, GTM, Link Controller, PEM, Websafe software version 12.0.0 to 12.1.2, 11.6.0 to 11.6.1, 11.4.0 to 11.5.4, 11.2.1, in some cases TMM may crash when processing TCP traffic. This vulnerability affects TMM via a virtual server configured with TCP profile. Traffic processing is disrupted while Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) restarts. If the affected BIG-IP system is configured to be part of a device group, it will trigger a failover to the peer device.

In F5 BIG-IP AAM and PEM software version 12.0.0 to 12.1.1, 11.6.0 to 11.6.1, 11.4.1 to 11.5.4, a remote attacker may create maliciously crafted HTTP request to cause Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) to restart and temporarily fail to process traffic. This issue is exposed on virtual servers using a Policy Enforcement profile or a Web Acceleration profile. Systems that do not have BIG-IP AAM module provisioned are not vulnerable. The Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) may restart and temporarily fail to process traffic. Systems that do not have BIG-IP AAM or PEM module provisioned are not vulnerable.

In F5 BIG-IP LTM, AAM, AFM, Analytics, APM, ASM, DNS, Edge Gateway, GTM, Link Controller, PEM, WebAccelerator software version 12.0.0 - 12.1.2, 11.6.0 - 11.6.1, 11.4.0 - 11.5.4, 11.2.1, when ConfigSync is configured, attackers on adjacent networks may be able to bypass the TLS protections usually used to encrypted and authenticate connections to mcpd. This vulnerability may allow remote attackers to cause a denial-of-service (DoS) attack via resource exhaustion.

In F5 BIG-IP LTM, AAM, AFM, Analytics, APM, ASM, DNS, GTM, Link Controller, PEM and Websafe software version 13.0.0, 12.0.0 to 12.1.2 and 11.5.1 to 11.6.1, under limited circumstances connections handled by a Virtual Server with an associated SOCKS profile may not be properly cleaned up, potentially leading to resource starvation. Connections may be left in the connection table which then can only be removed by restarting TMM. Over time this may lead to the BIG-IP being unable to process further connections.

In F5 BIG-IP LTM, AAM, AFM, Analytics, APM, ASM, DNS, GTM, Link Controller, PEM and Websafe software version 12.0.0 to 12.1.1, 11.6.0 to 11.6.1, 11.5.0 - 11.5.4, virtual servers with a configuration using the HTTP Explicit Proxy functionality and/or SOCKS profile are vulnerable to an unauthenticated, remote attack that allows modification of BIG-IP system configuration, extraction of sensitive system files, and/or possible remote command execution on the BIG-IP system.

iControl REST in F5 BIG-IP LTM, AAM, AFM, Analytics, APM, ASM, DNS, Link Controller, PEM, and WebSafe 12.0.0 through 12.1.2 and 13.0.0 includes a service to convert authorization BIGIPAuthCookie cookies to X-F5-Auth-Token tokens. This service does not properly re-validate cookies when making that conversion, allowing once-valid but now expired cookies to be converted to valid tokens.
