Status: Awaiting AnalysisLow (1.1)—
Severity1.1Low · CVSS 4.0
Exploitation probability0.27 %higher than 17% of CVEs
Active exploitationNonot in the CISA catalog
Public exploitNot knownno public code found

A stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS® software enables a malicious authenticated administrator to store or execute a JavaScript payload using the web interface.

The security risk posed by this issue is minimized when the management interface is restricted to only trusted internal IP addresses according to our recommended  best practice deployment guidelines https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/community-blogs/tips-amp-tricks-how-to-secure-the-management-access-of-your-palo/ba-p/464431 .

This issue is applicable to PAN-OS® software on PA-Series and VM-Series firewalls and on Panorama (virtual and M-Series).
