Technical details

A Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability exists in the IKEv2 certificate URL fetching mechanism of PAN-OS. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this by sending specially crafted IKEv2 traffic to a Site-to-Site VPN Gateway. Successful exploitation allows the attacker to force the firewall to initiate network requests to arbitrary destinations or trigger a denial of service (DoS) condition. The vulnerability specifically impacts configurations where IKEv2 is enabled for Site-to-Site VPNs. Patches are available for PAN-OS 10.2, 11.1, 11.2, and 12.1 branches.
