CVE-2012-6604
Status: ModifiedHigh (9)—
The device-management command-line interface in Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS before 3.1.11 and 4.0.x before 4.0.9 allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors, aka Ref ID 35249.
CVSS
- Version: 2.0
- Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:S/C:C/I:C/A:C
- Base score: 9
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 3.21%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 88
- Score date: 10/7/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
