CNA: palo_altoPAN-OS: Reflected Amplification Denial-of-Service (DoS) Vulnerability in URL Filtering
03 Exploitation and scoring
SRC: CISA, FIRST, NVD, RED HAT- Exploitation
- Exploited in the wild. Listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on 2022-08-22. Federal remediation due 2022-09-12.
- SSVC decision
- ExploitationactiveCISA reports credible evidence of active exploitation.
- AutomatableyesAn attacker can reliably automate reconnaissance through exploitation, so this scales.
- Technical ImpactpartialSuccessful exploitation gives limited control of the vulnerable component.
CISA publishes the decision points, not a final SSVC decision. The decision also depends on mission and well-being impact, which is a property of your deployment rather than of the vulnerability.- EPSS probability
- 2.38% probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days.
- EPSS percentile
- Ranks above 82.7% of scored records. A rank, not a probability.
- NVD base score
- 8.6 (CVSS v3.x), scored by the NVD independently of the CNA.
- NVD CVSS vector
- CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:H
- NVD analysis status
- Analyzed. NVD last modified this record on 2026-06-17.
- Red Hat severity
- No Red Hat rating. Red Hat rates the CVEs that affect its products.
Exploit-prediction scores from FIRST. Independent scoring and analysis status from the NVD. Vendor severity from Red Hat. Exploitation assessment and catalog membership from CISA.

We identified workarounds to prevent the denial-of-service (DoS) attacks that result from this issue in certain Palo Alto Networks firewalls, with this policy configuration
We intend to fix this issue for PA-Series, VM-Series and CN-Series firewalls with a fix in the following PAN-OS software releases: PAN-OS 8.1.23-h1 (ETA: week of August 8, 2022), PAN-OS 9.0.16-h3 (ETA: week of August 15, 2022), PAN-OS 9.1.14-h4 (ETA: week of August 15, 2022), PAN-OS 10.0.11-h1 (ETA: week of August 15, 2022), PAN-OS 10.1.6-h6 (ETA: week of August 8, 2022), and PAN-OS 10.2.2-h2 (ETA: week of August 15, 2022).
We expect to release all PAN-OS software updates for this issue no later than the week of August 15, 2022.
