Juniper: >> Junos Os Evolved >> 23.4 Security Vulnerabilities
An Improper Handling of Exceptional Conditions vulnerability in the Routing Protocol Daemon (rpd) of Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved allows a network-based, unauthenticated attacker to cause Denial of Service (DoS).
When a BGP UPDATE with malformed path attribute is received over an established BGP session, rpd crashes and restarts.
Continuous receipt of a BGP UPDATE with a specifically malformed path attribute will create a sustained Denial of Service (DoS) condition for impacted devices. While this issue affects systems running 32-bit and 64-bit systems, the probability of impact on 64-bit system is extremely low.
According to KB25803 https://supportportal.juniper.net/s/article/Junos-How-to-check-if-Junos-OS-is-64-or-32-bit-on-a-router , customers can confirm 32-bit or 64-bit system via the ' show version detail ' command:
lab@router> show version detail| match 32
JUNOS 32-bit kernel Software Suite
lab@router> show version detail| match 64
JUNOS 64-bit kernel Software Suite

An Improper Handling of Exceptional Conditions vulnerability in the Packet Forwarding Engine (pfe) of the Juniper Networks Junos OS Evolved on ACX Series devices allows an unauthenticated, network based attacker sending specific transit protocol traffic to cause a partial Denial of Service (DoS) to downstream devices.
Receipt of specific transit protocol packets is incorrectly processed by the Routing Engine (RE), filling up the DDoS protection queue which is shared between routing protocols. This influx of transit protocol packets causes DDoS protection violations, resulting in protocol flaps which can affect connectivity to networking devices.
This issue affects both IPv4 and IPv6. This issue does not require any specific routing protocol to be configured or enabled.
The following commands can be used to monitor the DDoS protection queue:
labuser@re0> show evo-pfemand host pkt-stats
labuser@re0> show host-path ddos all-policers
This issue affects Junos OS Evolved:
* All versions before 21.4R3-S8-EVO,
* from 22.2 before 22.2R3-S4-EVO,
* from 22.3 before 22.3R3-S4-EVO,
* from 22.4 before 22.4R3-S3-EVO,
* from 23.2 before 23.2R2-EVO,

An Improper Restriction of Communication Channel to Intended Endpoints vulnerability in the Packet Forwarding Engine (PFE) of Juniper Networks Junos OS Evolved on ACX 7000 Series allows an unauthenticated, network based attacker to cause increased consumption of resources, ultimately resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).
When specific transit MPLS packets are received by the PFE, these packets are internally forwarded to the Routing Engine (RE), rather than being handled appropriately. Continuous receipt of these MPLS packets causes resources to be exhausted. MPLS config is not required to be affected by this issue.
This issue affects Junos OS Evolved ACX 7000 Series:
* All versions before 21.4R3-S9-EVO,
* 22.2-EVO before 22.2R3-S4-EVO,
* 22.3-EVO before 22.3R3-S3-EVO,

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.

An Improper Validation of Consistency within Input vulnerability in the routing protocol daemon (rpd) of Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved allows an unauthenticated network-based attacker sending a specifically malformed BGP packet to cause rpd to crash and restart, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS). Continued receipt and processing of this packet will create a sustained Denial of Service (DoS) condition.
In some cases, rpd fails to restart requiring a manual restart via the 'restart routing' CLI command.

A Missing Release of Memory after Effective Lifetime vulnerability in the routing process daemon (rpd) of Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved allows an attacker to send a malformed BGP Path attribute update which allocates memory used to log the bad path attribute.

Consumed memory can be freed by manually restarting Routing Protocol Daemon (rpd).
Memory utilization could be monitored by:
user@host> show system memory or show system monitor memory status
