The svpn and policyserver components of the F5 BIG-IP APM client prior to version 7.1.7.1 for Linux and macOS runs as a privileged process and can allow an unprivileged user to get ownership of files owned by root on the local client host. A malicious local unprivileged user may gain knowledge of sensitive information, manipulate certain data, or assume super-user privileges on the local client host.

On F5 WebSafe Alert Server 1.0.0-4.2.6, a malicious, authenticated user can execute code on the alert server by using a maliciously crafted payload.

When the F5 BIG-IP APM 13.0.0-13.1.1 or 12.1.0-12.1.3 renders certain pages (pages with a logon agent or a confirm box), the BIG-IP APM may disclose configuration information such as partition and agent names via URI parameters.

The F5 BIG-IP Controller for Kubernetes 1.0.0-1.5.0 (k8s-bigip-crtl) passes BIG-IP username and password as command line parameters, which may lead to disclosure of the credentials used by the container.

F5 BIG-IP 13.0.0-13.0.1, 12.1.0-12.1.3.6, or 11.2.1-11.6.3.2 HTTPS health monitors do not validate the identity of the monitored server.

When F5 BIG-IP ASM 13.0.0-13.1.0.1, 12.1.0-12.1.3.5, 11.6.0-11.6.3.1, or 11.5.1-11.5.6 is processing HTTP requests, an unusually large number of parameters can cause excessive CPU usage in the BIG-IP ASM bd process.
