Severity CVSS v4.0:
HIGH
Type:
CWE-122 Heap-based Buffer Overflow
Publication date:

Last modified:

Description

A Heap-based Buffer Overflow vulnerability in the telemetry sensor process (sensord) of Juniper Networks Junos OS on MX240, MX480, MX960 platforms using MPC10E causes a steady increase in memory utilization, ultimately leading to a Denial of Service (DoS).<br /> <br /> When the device is subscribed to a specific subscription on Junos Telemetry Interface, a slow memory leak occurs and eventually all resources are consumed and the device becomes unresponsive. A manual reboot of the Line Card will be required to restore the device to its normal functioning. <br /> <br /> This issue is only seen when telemetry subscription is active.<br /> <br /> The Heap memory utilization can be monitored using the following command:<br />   &gt; show system processes extensive<br /> <br /> The following command can be used to monitor the memory utilization of the specific sensor<br />   &gt; show system info | match sensord<br /> PID NAME MEMORY PEAK MEMORY %CPU THREAD-COUNT CORE-AFFINITY UPTIME<br /> <br /> 1986 sensord 877.57MB 877.57MB 2 4 0,2-15 7-21:41:32<br /> <br /> <br /> This issue affects Junos OS: <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> * from 21.2R3-S5 before 21.2R3-S7, <br /> * from 21.4R3-S4 before 21.4R3-S6, <br /> * from 22.2R3 before 22.2R3-S4, <br /> * from 22.3R2 before 22.3R3-S2, <br /> * from 22.4R1 before 22.4R3, <br /> * from 23.2R1 before 23.2R2.
