CVE-2026-42930
HighCVSS 8.7Exploitation Probability (EPSS)
Low risk39th percentile - higher than 39% of all known CVEs
Summary
In Appliance mode, an authenticated attacker assigned the 'Administrator' role may be able to bypass Appliance mode restrictions on a BIG-IP system.
Risk Assessment
The ability to bypass security measures could lead to unauthorized access to the system, posing a serious threat to data integrity and confidentiality.
Recommendation
It is recommended to monitor user roles and restrict access to the 'Administrator' role only to trusted individuals. Consider updating the software to avoid known vulnerabilities.
