Vulnerability Details CVE-2025-52958
A Reachable Assertion vulnerability in the routing protocol daemon (rpd) of Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved allows an adjacent, unauthenticated attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS).On all Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved devices, when route validation is enabled, a rare condition during BGP initial session establishment can lead to an rpd crash and restart. This occurs specifically when the connection request fails during error-handling scenario.
Continued session establishment failures leads to a sustained DoS condition.

* from 22.4 before 22.4R3-S6,
* from 23.2 before 23.2R2-S3,
