Vulnerability Data
A server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in the IKEv2 implementation of Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS® software allows an unauthenticated attacker to cause the firewall to send network requests to unintended destinations or cause a denial of service (DoS) condition. Panorama,…

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Enforces information flow policies that would block the firewall from initiating network requests to attacker-chosen unintended destinations via the IKEv2 SSRF vector.
Restricts outbound network connections from the PAN-OS device, directly limiting the SSRF capability to reach arbitrary internal or external targets.
Requires validation of all inputs (including IKEv2 payloads) to reject malformed or attacker-supplied destination addresses that enable SSRF.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Secure development practices directly include input validation and destination allow-listing that prevent SSRF.
Runtime monitoring of web applications and services can detect anomalous outbound requests indicative of SSRF.
Vulnerability identification processes can discover and record SSRF flaws in web applications.
Network segmentation and egress controls can limit the damage from successful SSRF requests.
