GHSA-RJ2R-9Q5P-4C4W
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-01-12 03:30 – Updated: 2024-01-12 03:30A Heap-based Buffer Overflow vulnerability in the Routing Protocol Daemon (RPD) of Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved allows an unauthenticated, network based attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS).
If an attacker sends a specific BGP UPDATE message to the device, this will cause a memory overwrite and therefore an RPD crash and restart in the backup Routing Engine (RE). Continued receipt of these packets will cause a sustained Denial of Service (DoS) condition in the backup RE.
The primary RE is not impacted by this issue and there is no impact on traffic.
This issue only affects devices with NSR enabled.
This issue requires an attacker to have an established BGP session to a system affected by the issue. This issue affects both eBGP and iBGP implementations.
