Junos Os Evolved

Memory leak in Juniper Networks l2ald daemon allows adjacent attackers to crash Layer 2 services on EVPN-MPLS networks. Affects Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved across multiple versions. Unauthenticated attackers on the same network segment can trigger resource exhaustion by causing ESI route churn from multi-homed Provider Edge devices, forcing l2ald process crash and restart. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but exploitation requires only network adjacency without authentication.

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. Missing authentication on critical FPC management functions permits unauthorized privilege elevation. No public exploit identified at time of analysis.

Management daemon deadlock in Juniper Networks Junos OS 23.4-24.4 and Junos OS Evolved enables network-based authenticated attackers to trigger complete management plane denial-of-service via rapid NETCONF session cycling. Vulnerability causes mgd processes to hang in lockf state, exhausting process pool and preventing administrative logins. Recovery requires device power-cycle. Affects deployments using NETCONF management interface with authenticated remote users. No public exploit identified at time of analysis.

Unauthenticated buffer overflow in Juniper Networks Junos OS Evolved advanced forwarding toolkit (evo-aftmand/evo-pfemand) permits adjacent attackers to crash PTX Series and QFX5000 Series devices via crafted multicast packets. Exploitation triggers line card or device restart, sustaining denial of service under continuous attack. Affects multiple Junos OS Evolved release branches before patched versions. No public exploit identified at time of analysis. Attack requires adjacent network access but no authentication, making exploitation feasible in shared network segments.

Local privilege escalation in Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved allows low-privileged authenticated users to execute arbitrary code with root privileges. When unsigned Python operation scripts are enabled in device configuration, attackers can inject and execute malicious op scripts under root-equivalent context, achieving complete system compromise. Affects all Junos OS versions before 22.4R3-S7 and multiple branches through 24.4, plus corresponding Junos OS Evolved releases. No public exploit identified at time of analysis. CVSS 8.5 (High) with local attack vector requiring low privileges and no user interaction.

Repeated telemetry collector subscriptions in Juniper Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved trigger a use-after-free vulnerability in the chassis daemon, allowing authenticated network attackers to crash critical processes and cause denial of service. Affected versions prior to 22.4R3-S8, 23.2R2-S5, and 23.4R2 are vulnerable when telemetry-capable daemons experience continuous sensor subscription cycles. No patch is currently available, leaving affected systems exposed until updates are released.

MAC learning failures in Juniper Junos OS Evolved's Layer 2 Control Protocol Daemon can be triggered by a network-adjacent attacker who repeatedly toggles the management interface, causing label-switched interface MAC address learning to halt while generating excessive logs and consuming high CPU resources. This calculation error (CWE-682) affects availability through denial of service and currently has no available patch. The attack requires network adjacency but no authentication or user interaction.

Denial of service in Juniper Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved allows an adjacent IS-IS neighbor to trigger a memory leak in the routing protocol daemon by sending specially crafted update packets. Repeated exploitation exhausts available memory and crashes the rpd process, rendering routing unavailable. No patch is currently available.

Juniper Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved contain a use-after-free vulnerability in the 802.1X authentication daemon that allows authenticated, network-adjacent attackers to crash the process or achieve arbitrary code execution as root by triggering specific port state changes. Exploitation requires precise timing of a change-of-authorization event during port transitions, making reliable exploitation difficult but possible. Systems with 802.1X port-based network access control enabled are affected, and no patch is currently available.
