Description

In BIG-IP Versions 16.1.x before 16.1.3, 15.1.x before 15.1.6.1, 14.1.x before 14.1.5, and all versions of 13.1.x, a vulnerability exists in undisclosed pages of the BIG-IP DNS Traffic Management User Interface (TMUI) that allows an authenticated attacker with at least operator role privileges to cause the Tomcat process to restart and perform unauthorized DNS requests and operations through undisclosed requests. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.
