CVE-2012-4043

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Palo Alto Networks Global Protect Portal, Global Protect Gateway, and SSL VPN portals versions 3.1.x through 3.1.11 Palo Alto Networks Global Protect Portal, Global Protect Gateway, and SSL VPN portals versions 4.0.x through 4.0.5

Description A cross-site scripting (XSS) issue allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the inputStr parameter in a "Login" action. This affects the global-protect/login.esp endpoint.

Recommendations For versions 3.1.x through 3.1.11, update to a version outside of this range to resolve the issue. For versions 4.0.x through 4.0.5, update to a version outside of this range to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the global-protect/login.esp endpoint to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid using the inputStr parameter in the affected Login action until the issue is resolved.
