Description

An Improper Handling of Exceptional Conditions vulnerability in route processing of Juniper Networks Junos OS on specific end-of-life (EOL) ACX Series platforms allows an attacker to crash the Forwarding Engine Board (FEB) by flapping an interface leading to a Denial of Service (DoS).

On ACX1000 ACX1100 ACX2000 ACX2100 ACX2200 ACX4000 ACX5048 and ACX5096 devices FEB0 will crash when the primary path port of the L2 circuit IGP (Interior Gateway Protocol) on the local device goes down. This issue is seen only when ‘hot-standby’ mode is configured for the L2 circuit.
