Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Junos OS Evolved versions 22.2R1-EVO through 22.4R2-EVO
Description
The issue is related to an Improper Check for Unusual or Exceptional Conditions vulnerability in the Packet Forwarding Engine (PFE) of Juniper Networks Junos OS Evolved on ACX7000 Series. This vulnerability allows an unauthenticated, adjacent attacker to cause a Denial-of-Service (DoS). The vulnerability can be triggered by IPv4 and IPv6 traffic when a Customer Edge device (CE) is dual homed to two Provider Edge devices (PE) and sends multicast packets, resulting in a traffic loop.
Recommendations
For Junos OS Evolved versions 22.2R1-EVO through 22.4R2-EVO, update to version 22.4R2-EVO or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of IRBs on ACX 7000 Series platforms to minimize the risk of exploitation. Additionally, restrict access to the PFE module to prevent unauthorized access.
