Juniper: >> Junos Os Evolved >> 21.2 Security Vulnerabilities
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. This memory is not properly freed in all circumstances, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS).
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

An Improper Validation of Syntactic Correctness of Input vulnerability in the Packet Forwarding Engine (PFE) of Juniper Networks Junos OS on MX Series with MPC10/11 or LC9600, MX304, and Junos OS Evolved on ACX Series and PTX Series allows an unauthenticated, network based attacker to cause a Denial-of-Service (DoS).
This issue can occur in two scenarios:
1. If a device, which is configured with SFLOW and ECMP, receives specific valid transit traffic, which is subject to sampling, the packetio process crashes, which in turn leads to an evo-aftman crash and causes the FPC to stop working until it is restarted. (This scenario is only applicable to PTX but not to ACX or MX.)
2. If a device receives a malformed CFM packet on an interface configured with CFM, the packetio process crashes, which in turn leads to an evo-aftman crash and causes the FPC to stop working until it is restarted. Please note that the CVSS score is for the formally more severe issue 1.
The CVSS score for scenario 2. is: 6.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)
This issue affects Junos OS:
* All versions before 21.2R3-S4,
* 21.4 versions before 21.4R2,
* 22.2 versions before 22.2R3-S2;
Junos OS Evolved:
* All versions before 21.2R3-S8-EVO,

A Missing Release of Resource after Effective Lifetime vulnerability the xinetd process, responsible for spawning SSH daemon (sshd) instances, of Juniper Networks Junos OS Evolved allows an unauthenticated network-based attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by blocking SSH access for legitimate users. Continued receipt of these connections will create a sustained Denial of Service (DoS) condition.
The issue is triggered when a high rate of concurrent SSH requests are received and terminated in a specific way, causing xinetd to crash, and leaving defunct sshd processes. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability blocks both SSH access as well as services which rely upon SSH, such as SFTP, and Netconf over SSH.
Once the system is in this state, legitimate users will be unable to SSH to the device until service is manually restored. See WORKAROUND section below.
Administrators can monitor an increase in defunct sshd processes by utilizing the CLI command:
> show system processes | match sshd
root 25219 30901 0 Jul16 ? 00:00:00 [sshd] <defunct>
This issue affects Juniper Networks Junos OS Evolved:
* All versions prior to 21.4R3-S7-EVO
* 22.3-EVO versions prior to 22.3R2-S2-EVO, 22.3R3-S2-EVO;
* 22.4-EVO versions prior to 22.4R3-EVO;
* 23.2-EVO versions prior to 23.2R2-EVO.
This issue does not affect Juniper Networks Junos OS Evolved 22.1-EVO nor 22.2-EVO.

A Stack-Based Buffer Overflow vulnerability in Juniper Networks Junos OS and Juniper Networks Junos OS Evolved may allow a local, low-privileged attacker with access to the CLI the ability to load a malicious certificate file, leading to a limited Denial of Service (DoS) or privileged code execution.
By exploiting the 'set security certificates' command with a crafted certificate file, a malicious attacker with access to the CLI could cause a crash of the command management daemon (mgd), limited to the local user's command interpreter, or potentially trigger a stack-based buffer overflow.
This issue affects:
Junos OS:
* All versions before 21.4R3-S7,
* from 22.1 before 22.1R3-S6,
* from 22.2 before 22.2R3-S4,
