Summary

JunOS is prone to a Denial of Service Vulnerability.

Insight

Insight

Traffic between the RE and transit interfaces is carried over an internal network between the PFEs and REs. Some REs use em interfaces (usually, em0 and em1) to connect to this network. Receipt of a carefully crafted set of fragmented packets, destined to the router, can cause the em driver to become permanently blocked when trying to formulate a reply.

Affected Software

Affected Software

Junos OS 11.4, 12.1, 12.2, 12.3, 13.1, 13.2

Detection Method

Detection Method

Checks if a vulnerable OS build is present on the target host.

Solution

Solution

New builds of Junos OS software are available from Juniper. As a workaround filter fragmented packets destined to the router.
