Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2015-3628 exists.\n\nAffected product: F5 Big-Ip Access Policy Manager. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-3628/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-3628/index.md)","id":"CVE-2015-3628","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-3628/index.md","name":"CVE-2015-3628","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-fv4r-7842-6m86"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"F5 BIG-IP","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated Resource Administrators can escalate privileges via iCall scripts in SOAP requests to the iControl API.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"big-ip_access_policy_manager","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_advanced_firewall_manager","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_analytics","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_application_acceleration_manager","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_application_security_manager","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_edge_gateway","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_enterprise_manager","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_global_traffic_manager","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_link_controller","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_local_traffic_manager","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_policy_enforcement_manager","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_protocol_security_module","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_wan_optimization_manager","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_webaccelerator","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-iq_adc","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-iq_cloud","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-iq_device","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-iq_security","vendor":"f5"}],"cvss":{"score":9,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:S/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"The iControl API in F5 BIG-IP LTM, AFM, Analytics, APM, ASM, Link Controller, and PEM 11.3.0 before 11.5.3 HF2 and 11.6.0 before 11.6.0 HF6, BIG-IP AAM 11.4.0 before 11.5.3 HF2 and 11.6.0 before 11.6.0 HF6, BIG-IP Edge Gateway, WebAccelerator, and WOM 11.3.0, BIG-IP GTM 11.3.0 before 11.6.0 HF6, BIG-IP PSM 11.3.0 through 11.4.1, Enterprise Manager 3.1.0 through 3.1.1, BIG-IQ Cloud and Security 4.0.0 through 4.5.0, BIG-IQ Device 4.2.0 through 4.5.0, and BIG-IQ ADC 4.5.0 allows remote authenticated users with the \"Resource Administrator\" role to gain privileges via an iCall (1) script or (2) handler in a SOAP request to iControl/iControlPortal.cgi.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2015-09-03","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":1,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2015-09-03","kind":"metasploit","ref":"exploit/linux/http/f5_icall_cmd","stars":null,"title":"F5 iControl iCall::Script Root Command Execution"},{"date":"2015-11-19","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"38764","stars":null,"title":"F5 iControl -
