PAN-OS: Authenticated File Deletion Vulnerability on the Management Web Interface
An authenticated file deletion vulnerability in the Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS® software enables an authenticated attacker with network access to the management web interface to delete certain files as the “nobody” user; this includes limited logs and configuration files but does not include system files. The attacker must have network access to the management web interface to exploit this issue. You greatly reduce the risk of this issue by restricting access to the management web interface to only trusted internal IP addresses according to our recommended critical deployment guidelines https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/community-blogs/tips-amp-tricks-how-to-secure-the-management-access-of-your-palo/ba-p/464431 . This issue affects Cloud NGFW. However, this issue does not affect Prisma® Access software.

You greatly reduce the risk of exploitation by restricting access to a jump box that is the only system allowed to access the management interface. This ensures that attacks can succeed only if they obtain privileged access through those specified internal IP addresses.
