An authenticated file read vulnerability in the Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS software enables an authenticated attacker with network access to the management web interface to read files on the PAN-OS filesystem that are readable by the “nobody” user. You can greatly reduce the risk of this issue by restricting access to the management web interface to only trusted internal IP addresses according to our recommended best practices 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 does not affect Cloud NGFW or Prisma Access software.

Una vulnerabilidad de lectura de archivos autenticados en el software PAN-OS de Palo Alto Networks permite que un atacante autenticado con acceso de red a la interfaz web de administración lea archivos en el sistema de archivos PAN-OS que son legibles por el usuario “nobody”. Puede reducir en gran medida el riesgo de este problema al restringir el acceso a la interfaz web de administración solo a direcciones IP internas de confianza de acuerdo con nuestras pautas de implementación de mejores prácticas recomendadas https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/community-blogs/tips-amp-tricks-how-to-secure-the-management-access-of-your-palo/ba-p/464431. Este problema no afecta al software Cloud NGFW ni a Prisma Access.
