CVE-2026-0322 is a code-injection vulnerability in the Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS management interface that allows an authenticated, highly privileged attacker with network access to execute arbitrary code as root. Affected deployments include PA-Series and VM-Series firewalls and Panorama virtual and M-Series appliances, with vulnerable releases across PAN-OS branches 10.2, 11.1, 11.2, 12.1, and 12.2. No special configuration or user interaction is required. Cloud NGFW and Prisma Access are unaffected. The vulnerability has a CVSS v4.0 score of 8.6, and Palo Alto Networks has confirmed very limited exploitation. The specific vulnerable function and detailed exploitation mechanics have not been disclosed.

A high-severity code injection vulnerability in the PAN-OS management interface allows an authenticated attacker with high privileges and network access to execute arbitrary code as root. The reported CVSS 4.0 score is 8.6. Exploitation can compromise firewall or Panorama management appliances and enable unauthorized configuration changes or further intrusion activity. Disclosed October 14, 2026, the flaw is reportedly included in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, with an October 17, 2026 remediation deadline for applicable federal civilian agencies. Fixed releases are available. Recommended risk reductions include restricting management access to trusted internal addresses or a dedicated jump box; Threat Prevention signatures provide limited protection under specified inspection conditions. No complete workaround is known.
A PAN-OS management-interface vulnerability with a reported CVSS score of 8.6 that allows an attacker with existing authenticated management access to execute code as root. Active exploitation is confirmed, and CISA added it to the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog with a federal remediation deadline of October 17, 2026. Cloud NGFW and Prisma Access are explicitly unaffected.
A high-severity vulnerability in the PAN-OS management interface allows authenticated attackers with network access to execute malicious code with root privileges. The article reports a small number of observed attacks and inclusion in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. PA-Series and VM-Series firewalls and Panorama are affected; Cloud NGFW and Prisma Access are not. Patches are available. Although no workaround exists, restricting management-interface access to trusted internal IP addresses is recommended. Threat Prevention signatures 510046 and 510047 provide limited protection when SSL decryption is enabled.
A high-severity remote code execution vulnerability in the Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS management interface, rated CVSS v4 8.6.
