PAN-SA-2021-0001 Informational: Cortex XSOAR: Impact of Golang XML parsing vulnerabilities
Informational
Description
The Palo Alto Networks Product Security Assurance team evaluated the vulnerabilities (CVE-2020-29509, CVE-2020-29510, and CVE-2020-29511) that impact the standard Golang XML parsing library.
All versions of Cortex XSOAR use a version of Golang that contains these vulnerabilities but there are no scenarios for successful exploitation of them in Cortex XSOAR.
As a result, there is no known security impact for these issues in Cortex XSOAR. However, out of an abundance of caution, we removed the impacted Golang code entirely from Cortex XSOAR 5.5.0, Cortex XSOAR 6.0.2, and all later versions of Cortex XSOAR.
| CVE | Summary |
|---|---|
| CVE-2020-29509 | Conditions required for exploiting this vulnerability do not exist in Cortex XSOAR software. Therefore, Cortex XSOAR is not impacted. |
| CVE-2020-29510 | Conditions required for exploiting this vulnerability do not exist in Cortex XSOAR software. Therefore, Cortex XSOAR is not impacted. |
| CVE-2020-29511 | Conditions required for exploiting this vulnerability do not exist in Cortex XSOAR software. Therefore, Cortex XSOAR is not impacted. |
Product Status
| Versions | Affected | Unaffected |
|---|---|---|
| Cortex XSOAR 6.0 | < 6.0.2 | >= 6.0.2 |
| Cortex XSOAR 5.5 | None | 5.5.* |
Solution
Cortex XSOAR 5.5.0, Cortex XSOAR 6.0.2, and all later versions of Cortex XSOAR do not include the impacted Golang code.
