Description
An information exposure through log file vulnerability where an administrator's password or other sensitive information may be logged in cleartext while using the CLI in Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS software. The opcmdhistory.log file was introduced to track operational command (op-command) usage but did not mask all sensitive information. The opcmdhistory.log file is removed in PAN-OS 9.1 and later PAN-OS versions. Command usage is recorded, instead, in the req_stats.log file in PAN-OS 9.1 and later PAN-OS versions. This issue impacts: PAN-OS 8.1 versions earlier than PAN-OS 8.1.16; PAN-OS 9.0 versions earlier than PAN-OS 9.0.10; PAN-OS 9.1 versions earlier than PAN-OS 9.1.3.
Affected configurations
• paloaltonetworks pan-os (>= 8.0.0 <= 8.0.20)
• paloaltonetworks pan-os (>= 8.1.0 < 8.1.16)
• paloaltonetworks pan-os (>= 9.0.0 < 9.0.10)
• paloaltonetworks pan-os (>= 9.1.0 < 9.1.3)
