Good day from Singapore,

I have just discovered that Linux operating system is powering F5 BIG-IP network devices. Please refer to the following news article.

Article: Critical F5 BIG-IP vulnerability exploited to wipe devices

As the exploit gives attackers root privileges in the Linux operating systems powering BIG-IP devices, the rm -rf /* command will be able to delete almost every file, including configuration files required for the device to operate correctly.
