Palo Alto Networks security advisory (AV26-905)

Canada's Cyber Centre relayed Palo Alto Networks advisories covering PAN-OS, Cloud NGFW, Prisma Access, and Prisma Browser vulnerabilities, including PAN-OS CVE-2026-0310 buffer overflow.

The Canadian Centre for Cyber Security issued advisory AV26-905, noting that as of September 10, 2026, multiple Palo Alto Networks products are affected by vulnerabilities. Affected products include Cloud NGFW on AWS and Azure, multiple PAN-OS versions, Prisma Access, and Prisma Browser prior to 151.26.5.170. The advisory references CVE-2026-0310, a PAN-OS buffer overflow via XML processing (PAN-SA-2026-0012), and the September 2026 Chromium monthly vulnerability update. Administrators are encouraged to review the vendor links and apply available updates.

Palo Alto PAN-OS Buffer Overflow Lets Attackers Execute Arbitrary Code as Root

Palo Alto Networks fixed CVE-2026-0310, a CVSS 9.2 unauthenticated PAN-OS buffer overflow enabling root code execution on PA-Series firewalls.

Palo Alto Networks published an advisory on September 9, 2026 for CVE-2026-0310, a CWE-787 out-of-bounds write in PAN-OS XML processing with a CVSS v4.0 base score of 9.2, affecting the management and dataplane interfaces. Unauthenticated attackers could execute arbitrary code as root on PA-Series hardware firewalls, while VM-Series faces denial-of-service impact and Prisma Access and Cloud NGFW have reduced, authenticated exposure. Affected releases include PAN-OS 10.2, 11.1, 11.2, 12.1, and 12.2 before fixed maintenance releases such as 12.2.3, 12.1.4-h10, 11.2.13-h2, 11.1.16-h2, and 10.2.18-h10; no workaround is available. Palo Alto is not aware of malicious exploitation but classifies remediation urgency as highest.

Palo Alto PAN-OS Vulnerability Enables Arbitrary Code Execution as Root User

Palo Alto Networks patched CVE-2026-0310, an unauthenticated XML-processing buffer overflow in PAN-OS allowing root code execution on PA-Series firewalls.

Palo Alto Networks disclosed CVE-2026-0310, an out-of-bounds write (CWE-787) in PAN-OS XML processing with a CVSS-B base score of 9.2 and CVSS-BT of 7.2. An unauthenticated attacker with network access to a vulnerable management or dataplane interface can send crafted XML to execute arbitrary code as root on PA-Series appliances. On VM-Series the impact is limited to denial-of-service, while Prisma Access and Cloud NGFW require authentication and carry lower risk. Fixed releases include 12.2.3, 12.1.10, 11.2.13-h2, 11.1.16-h2, and 10.2.18-h10; no workaround exists beyond restricting management interface access.

  • Buffer Overflow in PAN-OS XML Processing Enables Root RCE on PA-Series Firewalls
    Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS contains a buffer overflow (CWE-787, out-of-bounds write) in its XML processing functionality. An unauthenticated attacker with network access to the management web interface or the dataplane interface can send malicious XML input to trigger the flaw. On PA-Series hardware firewalls this allows arbitrary code execution with root privileges, while on VM-Series virtual firewalls the impact is limited to a denial-of-service condition. Panorama centralized management is also affected, and exposure is greatly reduced when the management interface is restricted to trusted internal IP addresses per vendor best practice. As of this analysis there is no known public proof-of-concept, no CISA KEV listing, and no confirmed exploitation in the wild (CVSS 4.0 marks exploitability as unproven).
