Big-IP Scanner aids you in determining which software version is running on a remote F5 BIG-IP management interface.

About Big-IP Scanner

Determine the running software version of a remote F5 BIG-IP management interface.

CVE-2022-1388, a critical vulnerability in the F5 BIG-IP management interface, allows an attacker to bypass authentication and remotely execute arbitrary system commands. Bishop Fox developed a BIG-IP scanner that you can use to determine:

  • Which software version is running on a remote F5 BIG-IP management interface
  • Whether a specific appliance is affected by any known vulnerabilities, including CVE-2022-1388—all without sending any malicious traffic to the server (i.e., risking being blocked by a WAF)
