Description

A Missing Authentication for Critical Function vulnerability in the Flexible PIC Concentrators (FPCs) of Juniper Networks Junos OS Evolved on PTX Series allows a local, authenticated attacker with low privileges to gain direct access to FPCs installed in the device. A local user with low privileges can gain direct access to the installed FPCs as a high privileged user, which can potentially lead to a full compromise of the affected component. This issue affects Junos OS Evolved on PTX10004, PTX10008, PTX100016, with JNP10K-LC1201 or JNP10K-LC1202: * All versions before 21.2R3-S8-EVO, * 21.4-EVO versions before 21.4R3-S7-EVO, * 22.2-EVO versions before 22.2R3-S4-EVO, * 22.3-EVO versions before 22.3R3-S3-EVO, * 22.4-EVO versions before 22.4R3-S2-EVO, * 23.2-EVO versions before 23.2R2-EVO.

Analysis

Local privilege escalation in Juniper Networks Junos OS Evolved on PTX Series routers allows authenticated users with low privileges to gain high-privileged direct access to Flexible PIC Concentrators (FPCs), enabling potential full compromise of affected line cards. Impacts PTX10004, PTX10008, PTX10016 with JNP10K-LC1201 or JNP10K-LC1202 line cards across multiple firmware branches. …

Remediation

Within 24 hours: Inventory all PTX Series routers (PTX10004, PTX10008, PTX10016) with JNP10K-LC1201 or JNP10K-LC1202 line cards and current firmware versions; restrict administrative access to only necessary personnel with credential rotation. Within 7 days: Enable enhanced logging and monitoring of FPC management access; document baseline configurations for affected systems; establish communication channel with Juniper support for patch availability timeline. …
