Last modified
CVE-2026-32673 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 8.7/10 on the CVSS scale. A vulnerability exists in BIG-IP scripted monitors that may allow an authenticated attacker with the Resource Administrator or Administrator role to execute arbitrary system commands with higher privileges. In appliance mode deployments, a successful exploit can allow the attacker to cross a security boundary. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.. EPSS estimates a 0.24% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
