SYNTHESIS OF THE VULNERABILITY

An attacker can traverse directories of F5 BIG-IP, in order to
detect a file outside the service root path, and then to delete it.

Impacted products: BIG-IP Appliance

Severity: 2/4

Creation date: 13/11/2014

DESCRIPTION OF THE VULNERABILITY

The F5 BIG-IP product offers a web service.

However, queries of users with the "Resource Administrator" or
"Administrator" privilege are directly inserted in an access path.
Sequences such as "/.." can thus be used to go in the upper
directory.

An attacker can therefore traverse directories of F5 BIG-IP, in
order to detect a file outside the service root path, and then to
delete it.
