07 Remediation

This issue is fixed in PAN-OS 7.1.26, PAN-OS 8.1.12, PAN-OS 9.0.6, and all later PAN-OS versions. Upgrading Panorama to a fixed version is sufficient to resolve the issue. PAN-OS 8.0 is now end-of-life as of October 31, 2019, and is no longer covered by our Product Security Assurance policies.
