CWE Code: 400
Vulnerability Type: privilege_escalation
CVSS Score: 4.0
CWE Name:  Uncontrolled Resource Consumption
Summary: on big-ip (asm) 14.1.0-14.1.0.5, 14.0.0-14.0.0.4, 13.0.0-13.1.1.4, and 12.1.0-12.1.4, application logic abuse of asm rest endpoints can lead to instability of big-ip system. exploitation of this issue causes excessive memory consumption which results in the linux kernel triggering oom killer on arbitrary processes. the attack requires an authenticated user with role of "guest" or greater privilege. note: "no access" cannot login so technically it's a role but a user with this access role cannot perform the attack.
Access Authentication: SINGLE
Access Complexity: LOW
Access Vector: NETWORK
