This issue is exposed on virtual servers using a Policy Enforcement profile or a Web Acceleration profile. Systems that do not have BIG-IP AAM module provisioned are not vulnerable. The Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) may restart and temporarily fail to process traffic. Systems that do not have BIG-IP AAM or PEM module provisioned are not vulnerable.

The Linux kernel, versions 3.9+, is vulnerable to a denial of service attack with low rates of specially modified packets targeting IP fragment re-assembly. An attacker may cause a denial of service condition by sending specially crafted IP fragments. Various vulnerabilities in IP fragmentation have been discovered and fixed over the years. The current vulnerability (CVE-2018-5391) became exploitable in the Linux kernel with the increase of the IP fragment reassembly queue size.
On F5 WebSafe Alert Server 1.0.0-4.2.6, a malicious, authenticated user can execute code on the alert server by using a maliciously crafted payload.
Through undisclosed methods, on F5 BIG-IP 13.0.0-13.1.0.7, 12.1.0-12.1.3.5, 11.6.0-11.6.3.1, or 11.2.1-11.5.6, adjacent network attackers can cause a denial of service for VCMP guest and host systems. Attack must be sourced from adjacent network (layer 2).
On F5 BIG-IP versions 13.0.0 or 12.1.0 - 12.1.3.1, when a specifically configured virtual server receives traffic of an undisclosed nature, TMM will crash and take the configured failover action, potentially causing a denial of service. The configuration which exposes this issue is not common and in general does not work when enabled in previous versions of BIG-IP. Starting in 12.1.0, BIG-IP will crash if the configuration which exposes this issue is enabled and the virtual server receives non TCP traffic. With the fix of this issue, additional configuration validation logic has been added to prevent this configuration from being applied to a virtual server. There is only data plane exposure to this issue with a non-standard configuration. There is no control plane exposure.
F5 BIG-IP 13.0.0-13.0.1, 12.1.0-12.1.3.6, or 11.2.1-11.6.3.2 HTTPS health monitors do not validate the identity of the monitored server.
On F5 BIG-IP 13.1.0-13.1.0.5, maliciously crafted HTTP/2 request frames can lead to denial of service. There is data plane exposure for virtual servers when the HTTP2 profile is enabled. There is no control plane exposure to this issue.
On F5 BIG-IP 13.0.0-13.1.0.5, using RADIUS authentication responses from a RADIUS server with IPv6 addresses may cause TMM to crash, leading to a failover event.
On F5 BIG-IP 14.0.0, 13.0.0-13.1.0, 12.1.0-12.1.3, or 11.5.1-11.6.3 specifically crafted HTTP responses, when processed by a Virtual Server with an associated QoE profile that has Video enabled, may cause TMM to incorrectly buffer response data causing the TMM to restart resulting in a Denial of Service.
On F5 BIG-IP versions 13.0.0 - 13.1.0.3 or 12.0.0 - 12.1.3.1, TMM may restart when processing a specifically crafted page through a virtual server with an associated PEM policy that has content insertion as an action.

On versions 14.0.0-14.1.2, 13.0.0-13.1.3, 12.1.0-12.1.5, and 11.5.1-11.6.5, the BIG-IP system fails to perform Martian Address Filtering (As defined in RFC 1812 section 5.3.7) on the control plane (management interface). This may allow attackers on an adjacent system to force BIG-IP into processing packets with spoofed source addresses.
The BIG-IP 15.0.0-15.0.1, 14.0.0-14.1.2.2, 13.1.0-13.1.3.1, 12.1.0-12.1.5, and 11.5.1-11.6.5.1, BIG-IQ 7.0.0, 6.0.0-6.1.0, and 5.2.0-5.4.0, iWorkflow 2.3.0, and Enterprise Manager 3.1.1 configuration utility is vulnerable to Anti DNS Pinning (DNS Rebinding) attack.
On BIG-IP 14.0.0-14.0.0.2, 13.0.0-13.1.1.1, or 12.1.0-12.1.3.7, when a virtual server using the inflate functionality to process a gzip bomb as a payload, the BIG-IP system will experience a fatal error and may cause the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) to produce a core file.
