CVE-2020-1982

16
FAUCET Score

CVE-2020-1982 describes a vulnerability where certain PAN-OS communications with cloud-delivered services, including Cortex Data Lake and Prisma Access, inadvertently utilize the cryptographically weak TLS 1.0 protocol. This affects various versions of PAN-OS 8.0, 8.1 (prior to 8.1.14), 9.0 (prior to 9.0.9), and 9.1 (prior to 9.1.3). The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 4.8 (Medium), indicating a network-based attack with high attack complexity and potential for low confidentiality and integrity impact. However, Palo Alto Networks states that conditions for exploiting known TLS 1.0 weaknesses do not exist in this context, and they do not believe communication is impacted. There is no evidence of active exploitation, no public exploit code available (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), and minimal community discussion or media coverage, suggesting a low current threat landscape.
