Juniper: >> Junos Os Evolved >> 21.2 Security Vulnerabilities
An Incorrect Default Permissions vulnerability in Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved allows a local, low-privileged attacker to access confidential information on the system.
On all Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved platforms, when NETCONF traceoptions are configured, and a super-user performs specific actions via NETCONF, then a low-privileged user can access sensitive information compromising the confidentiality of the system.

An Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Juniper Tunnel Driver (jtd) and ICMP module of Juniper Networks Junos OS Evolved allows an unauthenticated attacker within the MPLS administrative domain to send specifically crafted packets to the Routing Engine (RE) to cause a Denial of Service (DoS).
When specifically crafted transit MPLS IPv4 packets are received by the Packet Forwarding Engine (PFE), these packets are internally forwarded to the RE. Continued receipt of these packets may create a sustained Denial of Service (DoS) condition.

An Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling vulnerability in the kernel of Juniper Networks Junos OS Evolved allows an unauthenticated, network-based attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS).
If a high rate of specific valid packets are processed by the routing engine (RE) this will lead to a loss of connectivity of the RE with other components of the chassis and thereby a complete and persistent system outage. Please note that a carefully designed lo0 firewall filter will block or limit these packets which should prevent this issue from occurring.
The following log messages can be seen when this issue occurs:
<host> kernel: nf_conntrack: nf_conntrack: table full, dropping packet
This issue affects Juniper Networks Junos OS Evolved:
* All versions earlier than 20.4R3-S7-EVO;

An Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer vulnerability in the management daemon (mgd) process of Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved allows a network-based authenticated low-privileged attacker, by executing a specific command via NETCONF, to cause a CPU Denial of Service to the device's control plane.
This issue affects:
Juniper Networks Junos OS
* All versions prior to 20.4R3-S7;
* 21.2 versions prior to 21.2R3-S5;
* 21.3 versions prior to 21.3R3-S5;
* 21.4 versions prior to 21.4R3-S4;
* 22.1 versions prior to 22.1R3-S2;
* 22.2 versions prior to 22.2R3;
* 22.3 versions prior to 22.3R2-S1, 22.3R3;
* 22.4 versions prior to 22.4R1-S2, 22.4R2.
Juniper Networks Junos OS Evolved
* All versions prior to 21.4R3-S4-EVO;
* 22.1 versions prior to 22.1R3-S2-EVO;
* 22.2 versions prior to 22.2R3-EVO;
* 22.3 versions prior to 22.3R3-EVO;
* 22.4 versions prior to 22.4R2-EVO.
An indicator of compromise can be seen by first determining if the NETCONF client is logged in and fails to log out after a reasonable period of time and secondly reviewing the WCPU percentage for the mgd process by running the following command:
mgd process example:
user@device-re#> show system processes extensive | match "mgd|PID" | except last
PID USERNAME PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE C TIME WCPU COMMAND
92476 root 100 0 500M 89024K CPU3 3 57.5H 89.60% mgd <<<<<<<<<<< review the high cpu percentage.
Example to check for NETCONF activity:
While there is no specific command that shows a specific session in use for NETCONF, you can review logs for UI_LOG_EVENT with "client-mode 'netconf'"
For example:
mgd[38121]: UI_LOGIN_EVENT: User 'root' login, class 'super-user' [38121], ssh-connection '10.1.1.1 201 55480 10.1.1.2 22', client-mode 'netconf'
