CVE-2025-35995
When a BIG-IP PEM system is licensed with URL categorization, and the URL categorization policy or an iRule with the urlcat command is enabled on a virtual server, undisclosed requests can cause the Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) to terminate.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.44%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
