So this October 2025 F5 security notification is pretty wild because of the sheer volume of vulnerabilities disclosed: more than 30 high-severity CVEs (!) and around a dozen medium-severity ones in a single release cycle. This affects almost every F5 product family, BIG-IP (all modules), BIG-IP Next, F5OS, and related components. Something we don’t see very often... and a lot of these vulnerabilities score above 8.0; remote exploitation, denial-of-service or privilege escalation. Also, the number of affected software branches (from 15.x through 17.x) means most F5 deployments are touched in some way. YMMV. In short, this quarter’s bulletin is probably F5’s heaviest security updates ever. If you run F5 products, patch now. https://my.f5.com/manage/s/article/K000156572
