THE THREAT:
On June 29th, 2020, Palo Alto announced an authentication-bypass vulnerability (CVE-2020-2021) affecting multiple PAN-OS versions used in VPN appliances and Firewalls [1]. The vulnerability affects Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) authentication. If exploited, threat actors with unauthenticated network access may gain access to protected resources. Additionally, attackers with access to PAN-OS or Panorama web interfaces could perform administrative actions. The vulnerability has not been identified as being exploited in the wild at this time but attacks are expected in the immediate future, given the simplicity of exploitation [2].
