Description

On BIG-IP version 16.0.x before 16.0.1, 15.1.x before 15.1.1, 14.1.x before 14.1.3.1, 13.1.x before 13.1.3.5, and all 12.1.x and 11.6.x versions, undisclosed endpoints in iControl REST allow for a reflected XSS attack, which could lead to a complete compromise of BIG-IP if the victim user is granted the admin role. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Software Development (EoSD) are not evaluated.
