Since pmd_user_accessible_page() doesn't check if a pmd is leaf, it decrease file_map_count for a non-leaf pmd comes from collapse_huge_page(). and so trigger BUG_ON() unexpectedly.

Fix this problem by using pmd_leaf() insteal of pmd_present() in pmd_user_accessible_page(). Moreover, use pud_leaf() for pud_user_accessible_page() too.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-07-11 15:31 – Updated: 2025-07-11 15:31
VLAI
Details

A Reachable Assertion vulnerability in the routing protocol daemon (rpd) of Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved allows an adjacent, unauthenticated attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS).On all Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved devices, when route validation is enabled, a rare condition during BGP initial session establishment can lead to an rpd crash and restart. This occurs specifically when the connection request fails during error-handling scenario.

Continued session establishment failures leads to a sustained DoS condition. 

This issue affects Junos OS:

  • All versions before 22.2R3-S6,
  • from 22.4 before 22.4R3-S6,
  • from 23.2 before 23.2R2-S3,
  • from 23.4 before 23.4R2-S4,
  • from 24.2 before 24.2R2;

  "details": "A Reachable Assertion vulnerability in the routing protocol daemon (rpd) of Juniper\u00a0Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved allows an adjacent,\u00a0unauthenticated\u00a0attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS).On all Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved devices, when route validation is enabled, a rare condition during BGP initial session establishment can lead to an rpd crash and restart. This occurs specifically when the connection request fails during error-handling scenario.\n\nContinued session establishment failures leads to a sustained DoS condition.\u00a0\n\nThis issue affects Junos OS:\n\n  *  All versions before 22.2R3-S6, \n  *  from 22.4 before 22.4R3-S6, \n  *  from 23.2 before 23.2R2-S3, \n  *  from 23.4 before 23.4R2-S4, \n  *  from 24.2 before 24.2R2; \n\n\n\nJunos OS Evolved: \n  *  All versions before 22.2R3-S6-EVO, \n  *  from 22.4 before\u00a022.4R3-S6-EVO,\n  *  from 23.2 before\u00a023.2R2-S3-EVO,\n  *  from 23.4 before 23.4R2-S4-EVO, \n  *  from 24.2 before 24.2R2-EVO.",
