Summary
A denial-of-service (DoS) vulnerability in Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS software allows an unauthenticated attacker to reboot a firewall by sending a specially crafted packet through the dataplane. Repeated reboot attempts cause the firewall to enter maintenance mode.
Risk Assessment
An attacker could repeatedly reboot the firewall, causing service disruptions and forcing the device into maintenance mode, impacting network availability.
Recommendation
Update PAN-OS to a patched version and monitor for unusual dataplane traffic patterns.
Other vulnerabilities in PAN-OS
See all- CVE-2026-0322HighActively exploited
A remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability in the management interface of Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS software enables an authenticated attacker with network access to execute arbitrary code with root privileges on the firewall. This affects PA-Series and VM-Series firewalls and Panorama (virtual and M-Series). Cloud NGFW and Prisma Access are not impacted.
- CVE-2026-0258Critical
An SSRF vulnerability in the IKEv2 implementation of Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS software allows an unauthenticated attacker to cause the firewall to send network requests to unintended destinations or cause a DoS condition.
- CVE-2026-0264Critical
A buffer overflow vulnerability in the DNS proxy and DNS Server features of Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS Software allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on all PAN-OS platforms except Cloud NGFW and Prisma Access, and potentially execute arbitrary code on PA-Series hardware by sending specially crafted network traffic.
- CVE-2026-0263Critical
A buffer overflow vulnerability in the IKEv2 processing of Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS software allows an unauthenticated network-based attacker to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges on the firewall, or cause a denial of service (DoS) condition.
- CVE-2025-0111MediumActively exploited
An authenticated attacker with network access to the PAN-OS management web interface can read files on the filesystem that are readable by the 'nobody' user. This issue does not affect Cloud NGFW or Prisma Access.
- CVE-2025-0108CriticalActively exploited
An authentication bypass in Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS software enables an unauthenticated attacker with network access to the management web interface to bypass authentication and invoke certain PHP scripts. This does not enable remote code execution but can negatively impact integrity and confidentiality.
- CVE-2024-9474HighActively exploited
A privilege escalation vulnerability in Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS software allows a PAN-OS administrator with access to the management web interface to perform actions on the firewall with root privileges. Cloud NGFW and Prisma Access are not impacted by this vulnerability.
- CVE-2024-0012CriticalActively exploited
An authentication bypass in Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS software allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access to the management web interface to gain PAN-OS administrator privileges. Affects PAN-OS 10.2, 11.0, 11.1, and 11.2. Risk can be reduced by restricting access to the management interface to trusted IPs.
- CVE-2020-2021CriticalActively exploited
A vulnerability in PAN-OS SAML authentication due to improper signature verification when the 'Validate Identity Provider Certificate' option is disabled. An unauthenticated network-based attacker can access protected resources, and for PAN-OS/Panorama web interfaces, can log in as an administrator. Affects PAN-OS 9.1 < 9.1.3, 9.0 < 9.0.9, 8.1 < 8.1.15, and all 8.0 versions (EOL).
- CVE-2019-1579HighActively exploited
Remote code execution vulnerability in PAN-OS with GlobalProtect Portal or GlobalProtect Gateway Interface enabled. An unauthenticated remote attacker can execute arbitrary code.
Original NVD description (English source)
A denial-of-service (DoS) vulnerability in Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS software enables an unauthenticated attacker to reboot a firewall by sending a specially crafted packet through the dataplane. Repeated attempts to initiate a reboot causes the firewall to enter maintenance mode. This issue is applicable to the PAN-OS software versions listed below on PA-Series firewalls, VM-Series firewalls, and Prisma® Access software. This issue does not affect Cloud NGFW. We have successfully completed the Prisma Access upgrade for all customers, with the exception of those facing issues such as conflicting maintenance windows. Remaining customers will be promptly scheduled for an upgrade through our standard upgrade process.
