This advisory is relevant to customers with Palo Alto devices with management ports that may be in any part accessible outside of isolated VLANs or internal networks. It includes guidance on identifying potentially vulnerable devices, advice for pinpointing active exploitation/compromise, and verifying/changing management settings to ensure future protection.
