Severity CVSS v4.0:
MEDIUM
Type:
CWE-787 Out-of-bounds Write
Publication date:

Description

An Out-of-bounds Write vulnerability in the SNMP daemon (snmpd) of Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved allows an authenticated network-based attacker sending specific valid SNMPv3 queries to trigger a memory leak. Over time, continuous receipt of these queries will result in snmpd process memory exhaustion, resulting in a process crash and restart, impacting the ability to monitor the system via SNMP.<br /> <br /> Memory usage can be monitored using the following command:<br /> <br /> user@device&gt; show system processes extensive | match snmpd<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> This issue affects:<br /> <br /> Junos OS:<br /> <br /> <br /> * all versions before 21.2R3-S8;<br /> * from 21.4 before 21.4R3-S7;<br /> * from 22.1 before 22.1R3-S6;<br /> * from 22.2 before 22.2R3-S4;<br /> * from 22.3 before 22.3R3-S3;<br /> * from 22.4 before 22.4R3-S2;<br /> * from 23.2 before 23.2R2;<br /> * from 23.4 before 23.4R2.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Junos OS Evolved:<br /> * all versions before 21.2R3-S8-EVO;<br /> * from 21.4 before 21.4R3-S7-EVO;<br /> * all versions of 22.1-EVO,<br /> * from 22.2 before 22.2R3-S4-EVO;<br /> * from 22.3 before 22.3R3-S3-EVO;<br /> * all versions of 22.4-EVO,<br /> * from 23.2 before 23.2R2-EVO;<br /> * from 23.4 before 23.4R2-EVO.
