Action Type Old Value New Value
Changed Description 
An Out-of-Bounds Read vulnerability in

the routing protocol daemon (rpd) of 

 Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved allows an unauthenticated network-based attacker sending a specifically malformed BGP packet to cause rpd to crash and restart, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS). Continued receipt and processing of this packet will create a sustained Denial of Service (DoS) condition.



This issue only affects systems with BGP traceoptions enabled.  Systems without BGP traceoptions enabled are not affected by this issue.





This issue affects iBGP and eBGP with 

any address family

 configured.

This issue affects:

Junos OS: 



  *  All versions before 21.4R3-S8,
  *  22.2 before 22.2R3-S5, 
  *  22.3 before 22.3R3-S4, 
  *  22.4 before 22.4R3-S3, 
  *  23.2 before 23.2R2-S2, 
  *  23.4 before 23.4R2; 




Junos OS Evolved: 



  *  All versions before 21.4R3-S8-EVO, 
  *  22.2-EVO before 22.2R3-S5-EVO, 
  *  22.3-EVO before 22.3R3-S4-EVO, 
  *  22.4-EVO before 22.4R3-S3-EVO, 
  *  23.2-EVO before 23.2R2-S2-EVO, 
  *  23.4-EVO before 23.4R2-EVO.

 Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved allows an unauthenticated network-based attacker sending a specifically malformed BGP packet to cause rpd to crash and restart, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS). Continued receipt and processing of this packet will create a sustained Denial of Service (DoS) condition.


This issue only affects systems configured in
      either of two ways:

    
    
        *  systems with BGP traceoptions enabled

        *  systems with BGP traffic engineering
          configured

    


This issue can affect iBGP and eBGP with 

any address family

 configured. The specific attribute involved is non-transitive, and will not propagate across a network.

This issue affects:

Junos OS: 



  *  All versions before 21.4R3-S8,
  *  22.2 before 22.2R3-S5, 
  *  22.3 before 22.3R3-S4, 
  *  22.4 before 22.4R3-S3, 
  *  23.2 before 23.2R2-S2, 
  *  23.4 before 23.4R2; 




Junos OS Evolved: 



  *  All versions before 21.4R3-S8-EVO, 
  *  22.2-EVO before 22.2R3-S5-EVO, 
  *  22.3-EVO before 22.3R3-S4-EVO, 
  *  22.4-EVO before 22.4R3-S3-EVO, 
  *  23.2-EVO before 23.2R2-S2-EVO, 
  *  23.4-EVO before 23.4R2-EVO.
