descriptionUnder certain conditions, hardware systems with a High-Speed Bridge (HSB) using non-default Layer 2 forwarding configurations may experience a lockup of the HSB. (CVE-2019-6604) This vulnerability occurs when all of the following conditions are met : A VLAN group is configured. The vlangroup.flow.allocate database key is disabled. Note : This is not the default configuration. You are running the BIG-IP system or BIG-IP Virtual Clustered Multiprocessing (vCMP) guests on one of the following hardware platforms: BIG-IP i850 (C117) BIG-IP i2x00 (C117) BIG-IP 3900 (C106) BIG-IP i4x00 (C115) BIG-IP 5000 (C109) BIG-IP i5x00 (C119) BIG-IP i5820-DF (C125) BIG-IP 6900 (D104) BIG-IP 7000 (D110) BIG-IP 8900 (D106) BIG-IP i7x00 (C118) BIG-IP i7820-DF (C126) BIG-IP 8950 (D107) BIG-IP 10000/102x0/ (D113) BIG-IP 10350 (D112) BIG-IP i10x00 (C116) BIG-IP 11000 (E101) BIG-IP 11050 (E102) BIG-IP i11x00 (C123) BIG-IP i11800-DS (C124) BIG-IP 12250 (D111) BIG-IP i15x00 (D116) VIPRION 2400 (B2100, B2150, B2250) VIPRION (B4100, B4200, B4300, B4340, B4450) Note : BIG-IP Virtual Edition (VE) and Cloud Edition products are not affected. Impact The BIG-IP system stops processing traffic, eventually leading to a failover to another host in the high availability (HA) group.
