Assess Vulnerabilities

View the vulnerabilities on a firewall according to PAN-OS version and enabled features.
Where Can I Use This?
What Do I Need?
  • NGFW (Cloud Managed)
  • NGFW (PAN-OS or Panorama Managed)
  • VM-Series, funded with Software NGFW Credits
  • AIOps for NGFW Free (use the AIOps for NGFW Free app)
    or
  • AIOps for NGFW Premium license (use the Strata Cloud Manager app)
AIOps for NGFW
shows you which vulnerabilities affect a given firewall and PAN-OS version to help you decide whether you should upgrade. Select the
PAN-OS Known Vulnerability
alert to see the latest security advisories impacting the firewall that raised the alert.
Select
Vulnerabilities in this PAN-OS version
to view the affected feature for a vulnerability in the
Feature Affected
column. This helps you to decide whether to upgrade a firewall based on the vulnerability and its impact on your enabled feature. If a CVE is not associated with a feature, then the value under
Feature Affected
is blank. This type of CVE affects the firewall with the specified model or version.
By default, the
PAN-OS Known Vulnerability
alert shows all of the vulnerabilities in the PAN-OS version on the device. However, if you enabled Product Usage telemetry on the firewall, you can choose to view only the vulnerabilities that affect the particular firewall based on its enabled features. That way, you can better understand which vulnerabilities are a concern for the firewall and make a more informed decision about whether to upgrade.
