CVE-2026-42919
Medium
Description
A vulnerability exists in BIG-IP systems that may allow an authenticated attacker with administrative access to escalate their privileges. A successful exploit may allow the attacker to cross a security boundary. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.
