Upgrade to a supported fixed version

PAN-OS 11.0 is EoL. We listed it in this section for completeness because we added a patch for PAN-OS 11.0 before it reached EoL. If you are running PAN-OS 11.0 in any of your firewalls, we strongly recommend that you upgrade from this EoL vulnerable version to a fixed version.
