Description

An Out-of-Bounds Read vulnerability in<br /> <br /> the routing protocol daemon (rpd) of <br /> <br /> Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved allows an unauthenticated, logically adjacent BGP peer 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.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> This issue only affects systems configured in<br /> either of two ways:<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> * systems with BGP traceoptions enabled<br /> <br /> * systems with BGP family traffic-engineering (BGP-LS)<br /> configured<br /> <br /> <br /> and can be exploited from a directly connected and configured BGP peer. <br /> <br /> This issue affects iBGP and eBGP <br /> <br /> with <br /> <br /> any address family<br /> <br /> configured, and both IPv4 and IPv6 are affected by this vulnerability.<br /> <br /> This issue affects:<br /> <br /> Junos OS: <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> * <br /> <br /> from 21.4 before 21.4R3-S9, <br /> * from 22.2 before 22.2R3-S5, <br /> * from 22.3 before 22.3R3-S4, <br /> * from 22.4 before 22.4R3-S5, <br /> * from 23.2 before 23.2R2-S3, <br /> * from 23.4 before 23.4R2-S3, <br /> * from 24.2 before 24.2R1-S2, 24.2R2; <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Junos OS Evolved: <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> * from 21.4-EVO before 21.4R3-S9-EVO, <br /> * from 22.2-EVO before 22.2R3-S5-EVO, <br /> * from 22.3-EVO before 22.3R3-S4-EVO, <br /> * from 22.4-EVO before 22.4R3-S5-EVO, <br /> * from 23.2-EVO before 23.2R2-S3-EVO, <br /> * from 23.4-EVO before 23.4R2-S2-EVO, <br /> * from 24.2-EVO before 24.2R1-S2-EVO, 24.2R2-EVO.<br /> <br /> <br /> This issue does not affect versions of Junos OS prior to 21.3R1.<br /> <br /> <br /> This issue does not affect versions of Junos OS Evolved prior to 21.3R1-EVO.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> This is a similar, but different vulnerability than the issue reported as CVE-2024-39516.
