Juniper SIRT (JSA) via NVD

Juniper's advisory portal (kb.juniper.net) is a login-walled Salesforce app, so VulniPulse ingests Juniper SIRT (JSA) advisories from NVD, filtered to Juniper's own CNA ([email protected]) — official, machine-readable data with the affected Junos releases in each description. Junos on SRX/MX/EX/QFX and Junos Space are the common targets.

High [CVE-2026-33771] Weak Password Requirements vulnerability in the password management function of Juniper Networks CTP OS might allow an unauthenticated, network-based attacker to exploit weak passwords of local accounts and potentially take full control of the device

A Weak Password Requirements vulnerability in the password management function of Juniper Networks CTP OS might allow an unauthenticated, network-based attacker to exploit weak passwords of local accounts and potentially take full control of the device. The password management menu enables the administrator to set password complexity requirements, but these settings are not saved. The issue can be verified with the menu option "Show password requirements". Failure to enforce the intended requirements can lead to weak passwords being used, which significantly increases the likelihood that an attacker can guess these and subsequently attain unauthorized access. This issue affects CTP OS versions 9.2R1 and 9.2R2. Affected product named by the advisory: EX. Affected product named by the advisory: EX.

High [CVE-2026-21913] Incorrect Initialization of Resource vulnerability in the Internal Device Manager (IDM) of Juniper Networks Junos OS on…

An Incorrect Initialization of Resource vulnerability in the Internal Device Manager (IDM) of Juniper Networks Junos OS on EX4000 models allows an unauthenticated, network-based attacker to cause a Denial-of-Service (DoS). On EX4000 models with 48 ports (EX4000-48T, EX4000-48P, EX4000-48MP) a high volume of traffic destined to the device will cause an FXPC crash and restart, which leads to a complete service outage until the device has automatically restarted. The following reboot reason can be seen in the output of 'show chassis routing-engine' and as a log message: reason=0x4000002 reason_string=0x4000002:watchdog + panic with core dump This issue affects Junos OS on EX4000-48T, EX4000-48P and EX4000-48MP: - 24.4 versions before 24.4R2, - 25.2 versions before 25.2R1-S2, 25.2R2. This issue does not affect versions before 24.4R1 as the first Junos OS version for the EX4000 models was 24.4R1. Affected products named by the advisory: EX.

High [CVE-2026-21908] Use After Free vulnerability was identified in the 802.1X authentication daemon (dot1xd) of Juniper Networks Junos OS and…

A Use After Free vulnerability was identified in the 802.1X authentication daemon (dot1xd) of Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved that could allow an authenticated, network-adjacent attacker flapping a port to crash the dot1xd process, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS), or potentially execute arbitrary code within the context of the process running as root. The issue is specific to the processing of a change in authorization (CoA) when a port bounce occurs. A pointer is freed but was then referenced later in the same code path. Successful exploitation is outside the attacker's direct control due to the specific timing of the two events required to execute the vulnerable code path. This issue affects systems with 802.1X authentication port-based network access control (PNAC) enabled. - from 23.2R2-S1 before 23.2R2-S5, - from 23.4R2 before 23.4R2-S6, Affected products named by the advisory: EX.

High [CVE-2026-21906] Improper Handling of Exceptional Conditions vulnerability in the packet forwarding engine (PFE) of Juniper Networks Junos OS…

An Improper Handling of Exceptional Conditions vulnerability in the packet forwarding engine (PFE) of Juniper Networks Junos OS on SRX Series allows an unauthenticated network-based attacker sending a specific ICMP packet through a GRE tunnel to cause the PFE to crash and restart. When PowerMode IPsec (PMI) and GRE performance acceleration are enabled and the device receives a specific ICMP packet, a crash occurs in the SRX PFE, resulting in traffic loss. PMI is enabled by default, and GRE performance acceleration can be enabled by running the configuration command shown below. PMI is a mode of operation that provides IPsec performance improvements using Vector Packet Processing. Note that PMI with GRE performance acceleration is only supported on specific SRX platforms. This issue affects Junos OS on the SRX Series: - all versions before 21.4R3-S12, - from 23.2 before 23.2R2-S5, - from 23.4 before 23.4R2-S5, Affected products named by the advisory: EX.

A Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition ('Infinite Loop') vulnerability in the SIP application layer gateway (ALG) of Juniper Networks Junos OS on SRX Series and MX Series with MX-SPC3 or MS-MPC allows an unauthenticated network-based attacker sending specific SIP messages over TCP to crash the flow management process, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS). On SRX Series, and MX Series with MX-SPC3 or MS-MPC service cards, receipt of multiple SIP messages causes the SIP headers to be parsed incorrectly, eventually causing a continuous loop and leading to a watchdog timer expiration, crashing the flowd process on SRX Series and MX Series with MX-SPC3, or mspmand process on MX Series with MS-MPC. This issue only occurs over TCP. SIP messages sent over UDP cannot trigger this issue. - all versions before 21.2R3-S10, - from 21.4 before 21.4R3-S12, - from 23.2 before 23.2R2-S5, - from 23.4 before 23.4R2-S6, Affected products named by the advisory: MX; EX.

High [CVE-2025-60003] Buffer Over-read vulnerability in the routing protocol daemon (rpd) of Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved

A Buffer Over-read 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). When an affected device receives a BGP update with a set of specific optional transitive attributes over an established peering session, rpd will crash and restart when attempting to advertise the received information to another peer. This issue can only happen if one or both of the BGP peers of the receiving session are non-4-byte-AS capable as determined from the advertised capabilities during BGP session establishment. Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved default behavior is 4-byte-AS capable unless this has been specifically disabled by configuring: [ protocols bgp... disable-4byte-as ] Established BGP sessions can be checked by executing: show bgp neighbor | match "4 byte AS" This issue affects: - all versions before 22.4R3-S8, - 23.2 versions before 23.2R2-S5, - 23.4 versions before 23.4R2-S6, Affected products named by the advisory: EX.

High [CVE-2025-59960] Junos: Improper Check for Unusual or Exceptional Conditions vulnerability in the Juniper DHCP service (jdhcpd) of Juniper Networks…

An Improper Check for Unusual or Exceptional Conditions vulnerability in the Juniper DHCP service (jdhcpd) of Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved allows a DHCP client in one subnet to exhaust the address pools of other subnets, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS) on the downstream DHCP server. By default, the DHCP relay agent inserts its own Option 82 information when forwarding client requests, optionally replacing any Option 82 information provided by the client. When a specific DHCP DISCOVER is received in 'forward-only' mode with Option 82, the device should drop the message unless 'trust-option82' is configured. Instead, the DHCP relay forwards these packets to the DHCP server unmodified, which uses up addresses in the DHCP server's address pool, ultimately leading to address pool exhaustion. This issue affects Junos OS: - all versions before 21.2R3-S10, - from 21.4 before 21.4R3-S12, - from 23.2 before 23.2R2-S5, - from 23.4 before 23.4R2-S6, - all versions of 22.2-EVO, - from 22.4 before 22.4R3-S8-EVO, Affected products named by the advisory: EX.
