CVE-2025-0136 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 5.3/10 on the CVSS scale. Using the AES-128-CCM algorithm for IPSec on certain Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS® firewalls (PA-7500, PA-5400, PA-5400f, PA-3400, PA-1600, PA-1400, and PA-400 Series) leads to unencrypted data transfer to devices that are connected to the PAN-OS firewall through IPSec. This issue does not affect Cloud NGFWs, Prisma® Access instances, or PAN-OS VM-Series firewalls. NOTE: The AES-128-CCM encryption algorithm is not recommended for use.. EPSS estimates a 0.13% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
