(CVE-2013-1824) Impact If a PHP application accepts untrusted SOAP object input remotely from clients, an attacker could use this flaw for the unauthorized reading of system files, accessible with the privileges of the PHP application. Status F5 Product Development has assigned ID 477313 (BIG-IP), ID 482170 (BIG-IQ), and ID 482174 (Enterprise Manager) to this vulnerability, and has evaluated the currently supported releases for potential vulnerability. To determine if your release is known to be vulnerable, the components or features that are affected by the vulnerability, and for information about releases or hotfixes that address the vulnerability, refer to the following table: Product Versions known to be vulnerable Versions known to be not vulnerable Vulnerable component or feature BIG-IP LTM 11.0.0 - 11.4.1* 11.5.0 - 11.6.0 XML parsing 10.0.0 - 10.2.4* BIG-IP AAM 11.4.0 - 11.4.1* 11.5.0 - 11.6.0 XML parsing BIG-IP AFM 11.3.0 - 11.4.1* 11.5.0 - 11.6.0 XML parsing BIG-IP 11.0.0 - 11.4.1* 11.5.0 - 11.6.0 XML parsing Analytics BIG-IP APM 11.0.0 - 11.4.1* 11.5.0 - 11.6.0 XML parsing 10.1.0 - 10.2.4* BIG-IP ASM 11.0.0 - 11.4.1* 11.5.0 - 11.6.0 XML parsing 10.0.0 - 10.2.4* BIG-IP Edge 11.0.0 - 11.3.0* None XML parsing Gateway 10.1.0 - 10.2.4* BIG-IP GTM 11.0.0 - 11.4.1* 11.5.0 - 11.6.0 XML parsing 10.0.0 - 10.2.4* BIG-IP Link 11.0.0 - 11.4.1* 11.5.0 - 11.6.0 XML parsing Controller 10.0.0 - 10.2.4* BIG-IP PEM 11.3.0 - 11.4.1* 11.5.0 - 11.6.0 XML parsing BIG-IP PSM 11.0.0 - 11.4.1* None XML parsing 10.0.0 - 10.2.4* BIG-IP 11.0.0 - 11.3.0* None XML parsing WebAccelerator 10.0.0 - 10.2.4* BIG-IP WOM 11.0.0 - 11.3.0* None XML parsing 10.0.0 - 10.2.4* ARX None 6.0.0 - 6.4.0 None Enterprise 3.0.0 - 3.1.1* None XML parsing Manager 2.1.0 - 2.3.0* FirePass None 7.0.0 None 6.0.0 - 6.1.0 BIG-IQ Cloud 4.0.0 - 4.3.0* 4.4.0 XML parsing BIG-IQ Device 4.2.0 - 4.3.0* 4.4.0 XML parsing BIG-IQ Security 4.0.0 - 4.3.0* 4.4.0 XML parsing *Certain product versions contain the affected code; however, those product versions do not parse untrusted XML input, and are therefore not exploitable. Recommended Action If the previous table lists a version in the Versions known to be not vulnerable column, you can eliminate this vulnerability by upgrading to the listed version. If the table does not list any version in the column, then no upgrade candidate currently exists.
