**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** PAN-OS versions 8.1 through 8.1.19 PAN-OS versions 9.0 through 9.0.13 PAN-OS versions 9.1 through 9.1.10 PAN-OS versions 10.0 through 10.0.7 **Description** An improper access control issue in PAN-OS software allows an attacker with authenticated access to GlobalProtect portals and gateways to connect to the EC2 instance metadata endpoint for VM-Series firewalls hosted on Amazon AWS. This enables the attacker to perform any operations allowed by the EC2 role in AWS. **Recommendations** For PAN-OS 8.1 versions earlier than 8.1.20, update to version 8.1.20 or later. For PAN-OS 9.0 versions earlier than 9.0.14, update to version 9.0.14 or later. For PAN-OS 9.1 versions earlier than 9.1.11, update to version 9.1.11 or later. For PAN-OS 10.0 versions earlier than 10.0.8, update to version 10.0.8 or later.

**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** Cisco FireSIGHT Management Center versions 5.2 through 5.4.0.1 **Description** The issue concerns the rule-update feature, which fails to verify the X.509 certificate of the support.sourcefire.com SSL server. This allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof the server, provide an invalid package, and execute arbitrary code using a crafted certificate. **Recommendations** For Cisco FireSIGHT Management Center versions 5.2 through 5.4.0.1, consider disabling the rule-update feature until a patch is available to prevent potential exploitation. Restrict access to the support.sourcefire.com SSL server to minimize the risk of man-in-the-middle attacks.
