Vendor Solution
This issue is fixed in PAN-OS 8.1.15, PAN-OS 9.0.9, PAN-OS 9.1.3, and all later PAN-OS versions. All Prisma Access services are now upgraded to resolve this issue and are no longer vulnerable. PAN-OS 7.1 and 8.0 are end-of-life and are no longer covered by our Product Security Assurance policies.
Vendor Workaround
Until PAN-OS software is upgraded to a fixed version, enabling signatures in content update version 8317 will block attacks against CVE-2020-2040.
