In some cases the MCPD binary cache in F5 BIG-IP devices may allow a user with Advanced Shell access, or privileges to generate a qkview, to temporarily obtain normally unrecoverable information.

F5 BIG-IP 12.0.0 and 11.5.0 - 11.6.1 REST requests which timeout during user account authentication may log sensitive attributes such as passwords in plaintext to /var/log/restjavad.0.log. It may allow local users to obtain sensitive information by reading these files.

Virtual servers in F5 BIG-IP systems 11.5.0, 11.5.1 before HF11, 11.5.2, 11.5.3, 11.5.4 before HF2, 11.6.0 before HF8, 11.6.1 before HF1, 12.0.0 before HF4, and 12.1.0 before HF2, when configured with the HTTP Explicit Proxy functionality or SOCKS profile, allow remote attackers to modify the system configuration, read system files, and possibly execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors.

The Configuration utility in F5 BIG-IP LTM, Analytics, APM, ASM, GTM, and Link Controller 11.x before 11.2.1 HF16, 11.3.x, 11.4.x before 11.4.1 HF10, 11.5.x before 11.5.4, and 11.6.x before 11.6.1; BIG-IP AAM 11.4.x before 11.4.1 HF10, 11.5.x before 11.5.4, and 11.6.x before 11.6.1; BIG-IP AFM and PEM 11.3.x, 11.4.x before 11.4.1 HF10, 11.5.x before 11.5.4, and 11.6.x before 11.6.1; BIG-IP Edge Gateway, WebAccelerator, and WOM 11.x before 11.2.1 HF16 and 11.3.0; and BIG-IP PSM 11.x before 11.2.1 HF16, 11.3.x, and 11.4.x before 11.4.1 HF10 allows remote authenticated users with certain permissions to gain privileges by leveraging an Access Policy Manager customization configuration section that allows file uploads.

The default configuration of the IPsec IKE peer listener in F5 BIG-IP LTM, Analytics, APM, ASM, and Link Controller 11.2.1 before HF16, 11.4.x, 11.5.x before 11.5.4 HF2, 11.6.x before 11.6.1, and 12.x before 12.0.0 HF2; BIG-IP AAM, AFM, and PEM 11.4.x, 11.5.x before 11.5.4 HF2, 11.6.x before 11.6.1, and 12.x before 12.0.0 HF2; BIG-IP DNS 12.x before 12.0.0 HF2; BIG-IP Edge Gateway, WebAccelerator, and WOM 11.2.1 before HF16; BIG-IP GTM 11.2.1 before HF16, 11.4.x, 11.5.x before 11.5.4 HF2, and 11.6.x before 11.6.1; and BIG-IP PSM 11.4.0 through 11.4.1 improperly enables the anonymous IPsec IKE peer configuration object, which allows remote attackers to establish an IKE Phase 1 negotiation and possibly conduct brute-force attacks against Phase 2 negotiations via unspecified vectors.
