Description:
A vulnerability has been reported in BIG-IP, which can be exploited by malicious people to bypass the user authentication.
The problem is that login credentials are cached for the Configuration utility and once a user is logged in, the entered password is not checked for subsequent sessions under that username.
Successful exploitation grants access without supplying a valid password.
The vulnerability affects versions 9.0.2 through 9.0.4.
