CVE-2026-0285Network attack vector

Authenticated firewall requests to internal services

Published Jul 9, 2026 · Updated Jul 9, 2026

SSRF in Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS allows remote authenticated users to send unauthorized firewall requests to internal services. The flaw resides in the management web interface, but Palo Alto Networks has not published the request handler, attacker-controlled parameter, or validation failure that permits the server-side request. Reachability requires administrative privileges and network access to that interface; the resulting requests can interact with services otherwise reachable only from the firewall.
