(See http://www.f5.com/pdf/products/firepass-overview.pdf) 3. VULNERABILITY DESCRIPTION F5 FirePass SSL VPN contains a flaw that allows a remote cross site redirection attack.

This could allow a user to create a specially crafted URL, that if clicked, would redirect a victim from the intended legitimate web site to an arbitrary web site of the attacker's choosing. 4.
