We would like to thank Palo Alto Networks for handling and addressing the reported issues in a timely and professional manner. Fixed versions were released on October 15, 2019, by Palo Alto Networks. The vulnerabilities allowed unprivileged users to reliably escalate to root or SYSTEM on machines where the GlobalProtect software is used.
