Juniper: >> Mx10008 Security Vulnerabilities
An Uncontrolled Resource Consumption vulnerability in the http daemon (httpd) of Juniper Networks Junos OS on SRX Series, QFX Series, MX Series and EX Series allows an unauthenticated, network-based attacker to cause Denial-of-Service (DoS).
An attacker can send specific HTTPS connection requests to the device, triggering the creation of processes that are not properly terminated. Over time, this leads to resource exhaustion, ultimately causing the device to crash and restart.
The following command can be used to monitor the resource usage:
user@host> show system processes extensive | match mgd | count
This issue affects Junos OS on SRX Series and EX Series:
All versions before 21.4R3-S7,
from 22.2 before 22.2R3-S4,
from 22.3 before 22.3R3-S3,
from 22.4 before 22.4R3-S2,
from 23.2 before 23.2R2-S1,
from 23.4 before 23.4R1-S2, 23.4R2.

A Missing Release of Memory after Effective Lifetime vulnerability in the Packet Forwarding Engine (PFE) of the Juniper Networks Junos OS on the MX Series platforms with Trio-based FPCs allows an unauthenticated, adjacent attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS).
In case of channelized Modular Interface Cards (MICs), every physical interface flap operation will leak heap memory. Over a period of time, continuous physical interface flap operations causes local FPC to eventually run out of memory and crash.
Below CLI command can be used to check the memory usage over a period of time:
user@host> show chassis fpc
Temp CPU Utilization (%) CPU Utilization (%) Memory
Utilization (%)
Slot State (C) Total Interrupt 1min 5min
15min DRAM (MB) Heap Buffer

An Improper Handling of Exceptional Conditions vulnerability in packet processing of Juniper Networks Junos OS on MX Series with MPC10/MPC11/LC9600 line cards, EX9200 with EX9200-15C lines cards, MX304 devices, and Juniper Networks Junos OS Evolved on PTX Series, allows an attacker sending malformed DHCP packets to cause ingress packet processing to stop, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS). Continued receipt and processing of these packets will create a sustained Denial of Service (DoS) condition.
This issue only occurs if DHCP snooping is enabled. See configuration below.
This issue can be detected using following commands. Their output will display the interface status going down:
user@device>show interfaces <if--x/x/x>
user@device>show log messages | match <if--x/x/x>
user@device>show log messages ==> will display the "[Error] Wedge-Detect : Host Loopback Wedge Detected: PFE: no," logs.

A Use After Free vulnerability in command processing of Juniper Networks Junos OS on MX Series allows a local, authenticated attacker to cause the broadband edge service manager daemon (bbe-smgd) to crash upon execution of specific CLI commands, creating a Denial of Service (DoS) condition. The process crashes and restarts automatically.
When specific CLI commands are executed, the bbe-smgd daemon attempts to write into an area of memory (mgd socket) that was already closed, causing the process to crash. This process manages and controls the configuration of broadband subscriber sessions and services. While the process is unavailable, additional subscribers will not be able to connect to the device, causing a temporary Denial of Service condition.
This issue only occurs if Graceful Routing Engine Switchover (GRES) and Subscriber Management are enabled.
This issue affects Junos OS:
* All versions before 20.4R3-S5,
* from 21.1 before 21.1R3-S4,
* from 21.2 before 21.2R3-S3,
* from 21.3 before 21.3R3-S5,

An Improper Check or Handling of Exceptional Conditions vulnerability in the Packet Forwarding Engine (PFE) of Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved allows an unauthenticated, adjacent attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS).
If an attacker sends a specific MPLS packet, which upon processing, causes an internal loop, that leads to a PFE crash and restart. Continued receipt of these packets leads to a sustained Denial of Service (DoS) condition.
Circuit cross-connect (CCC) needs to be configured on the device for it to be affected by this issue.
This issue only affects MX Series with MPC10, MPC11, LC9600, and MX304.
