An insufficient authentication vulnerability on platforms where Junos OS instances are run in a virtualized environment, may allow unprivileged users on the Junos OS instance to gain access to the host operating environment, and thus escalate privileges. Affected releases are Juniper Networks Junos OS 14.1X53 prior to 14.1X53-D40 on QFX5110, QFX5200, QFX10002, QFX10008, QFX10016, EX4600 and NFX250; 15.1 prior to 15.1R5 on EX4600; 15.1X49 prior to 15.1X49-D70 on vSRX, SRX1500, SRX4100, SRX4200; 16.1 prior to 16.1R2 on EX4600, ACX5000 series. This issue does not affect vMX. No other Juniper Networks products or platforms are affected by this issue.

Race condition in the Op command in Juniper Junos OS before 12.1X44-D55, 12.1X46 before 12.1X46-D40, 12.1X47 before 12.1X47-D25, 12.3 before 12.3R11, 12.3X48 before 12.3X48-D20, 12.3X50 before 12.3X50-D50, 13.2 before 13.2R8, 13.2X51 before 13.2X51-D39, 13.2X52 before 13.2X52-D30, 13.3 before 13.3R7, 14.1 before 14.1R6, 14.1X53 before 14.1X53-D30, 14.2 before 14.2R4, 15.1 before 15.1F2 or 15.1R2, 15.1X49 before 15.1X49-D10 or 15.1X49-D20, and 16.1 before 16.1R1 allows remote authenticated users to gain privileges via the URL option.

Embedthis Appweb before 4.6.6 and 5.x before 5.2.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference) via a Range header with an empty value, as demonstrated by "Range: x=,".

Memory leak in Juniper JUNOS Packet Forwarding Engine (PFE) allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory exhaustion and device reboot) via certain IPv6 packets.

TCP, when using a large Window Size, makes it easier for remote attackers to guess sequence numbers and cause a denial of service (connection loss) to persistent TCP connections by repeatedly injecting a TCP RST packet, especially in protocols that use long-lived connections, such as BGP.
