CVE-2016-3656

Status: ModifiedHigh (7.5)—

The GlobalProtect Portal in Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS before 5.0.18, 6.0.x before 6.0.13, 6.1.x before 6.1.10, and 7.0.x before 7.0.5H2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (service crash) via a crafted request.

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

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).
