Unauthenticated code execution via attacker-controlled Spark response
Published Jan 11, 2025 · Updated Jan 24, 2025
OS command injection in Palo Alto Networks Expedition before 1.2.100 allows remote attackers to execute commands as www-data. The unauthenticated /API/regionsDiscovery.php endpoint connects to an attacker-supplied Apache Spark server and executes a returned Java package. Any host that can reach the web interface can disclose stored usernames, cleartext passwords, firewall configurations, and API keys; no special configuration is required.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
