Palo Alto Networks patched a critical PAN-OS vulnerability (CVE-2026-0227) that lets unauthenticated attackers trigger a denial-of-service on GlobalProtect gateways/portals. The flaw, rated CVSS 7.7 (HIGH), stems from improper handling of unusual conditions and affects multiple PAN-OS versions (Cloud NGFW is spared). A PoC exists, exploitation is not yet observed, and no workarounds are available. Administrators should upgrade to the latest hotfixes (PAN-OS 12.1.4 or 11.2.10-h2) and verify configurations via Palo Alto’s support portal while monitoring for DoS attempts.
