On BIG-IP 14.0.0-14.0.0.2, 13.0.0-13.1.1.1, or 12.1.0-12.1.3.6, malicious requests made to virtual servers with an HTTP profile can cause the TMM to restart. The issue is exposed with the non-default "normalize URI" configuration options used in iRules and/or BIG-IP LTM policies.

In BIG-IP 14.0.0-14.0.0.2, 13.1.0.4-13.1.1.1, or 12.1.3.4-12.1.3.6, If an MPTCP connection receives an abort signal while the initial flow is not the primary flow, the initial flow will remain after the closing procedure is complete. TMM may restart and produce a core file as a result of this condition.

In BIG-IP 14.0.0-14.0.0.2, 13.0.0-13.1.1.5, 12.1.0-12.1.4.1, and 11.2.1-11.6.3.2, an attacker sending specially crafted SSL records to a SSL Virtual Server will cause corruption in the SSL data structures leading to intermittent decrypt BAD_RECORD_MAC errors. Clients will be unable to access the application load balanced by a virtual server with an SSL profile until tmm is restarted.

In F5 BIG-IP APM 13.0.0-13.1.1.1, APM Client 7.1.5-7.1.6, and/or Edge Client 7101-7160, the BIG-IP APM Edge Client component loads the policy library with user permission and bypassing the endpoint checks.

On F5 BIG-IP 13.0.0-13.1.1.1 and 12.1.0-12.1.3.6, there is a reflected Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in an undisclosed Configuration Utility page.

On F5 BIG-IP AFM 13.0.0-13.1.1.1 and 12.1.0-12.1.3.6, there is a Reflected Cross Site Scripting vulnerability in undisclosed TMUI page.

On F5 BIG-IP AFM 13.0.0-13.1.1.1 and 12.1.0-12.1.3.6, there is a Reflected Cross Site Scripting vulnerability in undisclosed TMUI page.

On F5 BIG-IP 13.0.0-13.1.1.1 and 12.1.0-12.1.3.6, a reflected Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in an undisclosed page of the BIG-IP Configuration utility that allows an authenticated user to execute JavaScript for the currently logged-in user.

When F5 BIG-IP 13.0.0-13.1.0.5, 12.1.0-12.1.3.5, 11.6.0-11.6.3.2, or 11.5.1-11.5.6 is processing specially crafted TCP traffic with the Large Receive Offload (LRO) feature enabled, TMM may crash, leading to a failover event. This vulnerability is not exposed unless LRO is enabled, so most affected customers will be on 13.1.x. LRO has been available since 11.4.0 but is not enabled by default until 13.1.0.

A vulnerability in BIG-IP APM portal access 11.5.1-11.5.7, 11.6.0-11.6.3, and 12.1.0-12.1.3 discloses the BIG-IP software version in rewritten pages.

tcpdump: Buffer over-read in ospf6_print_lshdr() function in print-ospf6.c

The OSPFv3 parser in tcpdump before 4.9.3 has a buffer over-read in print-ospf6.c:ospf6_print_lshdr().

kernel: Missing check in fs/inode.c:inode_init_owner() does not clear SGID bit on non-directories for non-members

The inode_init_owner function in fs/inode.c in the Linux kernel through 3.16 allows local users to create files with an unintended group ownership, in a scenario where a directory is SGID to a certain group and is writable by a user who is not a member of that group. Here, the non-member can trigger creation of a plain file whose group ownership is that group. The intended behavior was that the non-member can trigger creation of a directory (but not a plain file) whose group ownership is that group. The non-member can escalate privileges by making the plain file executable and SGID.

hw: Machine Check Error on Page Size Change (IFU)

Improper invalidation for page table updates by a virtual guest operating system for multiple Intel(R) Processors may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable denial of service of the host system via local access.

In versions 13.0.0, 12.0.0-12.1.3, or 11.6.0-11.6.2, an F5 BIG-IP virtual server using the URL categorization feature may cause the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) to produce a core file when it receives malformed URLs during categorization.

In F5 BIG-IP 12.0.0-12.1.2, 11.6.0-11.6.1, 11.5.1-11.5.5, or 11.2.1 there is a vulnerability in TMM related to handling of invalid IP addresses.

When the F5 BIG-IP 12.1.0-12.1.1, 11.6.0-11.6.1, 11.5.1-11.5.5, or 11.2.1 system is configured with a wildcard IPSec tunnel endpoint, it may allow a remote attacker to disrupt or impersonate the tunnels that have completed phase 1 IPSec negotiations. The attacker must possess the necessary credentials to negotiate the phase 1 of the IPSec exchange to exploit this vulnerability; in many environment this limits the attack surface to other endpoints under the same administration.

On F5 BIG-IP 13.0.0, 12.0.0-12.1.3.1, 11.6.0-11.6.2, 11.4.1-11.5.5, or 11.2.1, malformed SPDY or HTTP/2 requests may result in a disruption of service to TMM. Data plane is only exposed when a SPDY or HTTP/2 profile is attached to a virtual server. There is no control plane exposure.

On F5 BIG-IP systems running 13.0.0, 12.1.0 - 12.1.3.1, or 11.6.1 - 11.6.2, the BIG-IP ASM bd daemon may core dump memory under some circumstances when processing undisclosed types of data on systems with 48 or more CPU cores.

Features in F5 BIG-IP 13.0.0-13.1.0.3, 12.1.0-12.1.3.1, 11.6.1-11.6.3.1, 11.5.1-11.5.5, or 11.2.1 system that utilizes inflate functionality directly, via an iRule, or via the inflate code from PEM module are subjected to a service disruption via a "Zip Bomb" attack.

Under certain conditions for F5 BIG-IP systems 13.0.0 or 12.1.0 - 12.1.3.1, using FastL4 profiles, when the Reassemble IP Fragments option is disabled (default), some specific large fragmented packets may restart the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM).
