VAR-201704-0755
Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-20 23:32On Juniper Networks Junos OS 15.1 releases from 15.1R3 to 15.1R4, 16.1 prior to 16.1R3, on M/MX platforms where Enhanced Subscriber Management for DHCPv6 subscribers is configured, a vulnerability in processing IPv6 ND packets originating from subscribers and destined to M/MX series routers can result in a PFE (Packet Forwarding Engine) hang or crash. Juniper Networks Junos OS Contains an input validation vulnerability.Service operation interruption (DoS) An attack may be carried out. Juniper Junos is prone to a denial-of-service vulnerability. Attackers can exploit this issue to crash and hang the affected device, denying service to legitimate users. Juniper Junos OS is a set of network operating system of Juniper Networks (Juniper Networks) dedicated to the company's hardware systems. The operating system provides a secure programming interface and Junos SDK

Nomenclature
- Seen: The vulnerability was mentioned, discussed, or observed by the user.
- Confirmed: The vulnerability has been validated from an analyst's perspective.
- Published Proof of Concept: A public proof of concept is available for this vulnerability.
- Exploited: The vulnerability was observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
- Patched: The vulnerability was observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.
- Not exploited: The vulnerability was not observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
- Not confirmed: The user expressed doubt about the validity of the vulnerability.
- Not patched: The vulnerability was not observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.
Vulnerability timeline
Sightings and recorded dates, grouped by day · UTC
How durations are calculated
Following the VTEM framework (Black Hat USA 2015), time to patch starts when the vendor or a coordinator was informed, total time to patch at discovery, and disclosure to patch at public disclosure; vendor response time runs from the report to its acknowledgement. Time to exploit and time unpatched start at the earliest discovery or report, falling back to public disclosure. Unpatched time ends at the first recorded patch, or the calculation time when no patch is recorded. Exploitation to patch shows the interval between those two events; a published proof of concept is a public exploit, not exploitation.
Each result shows its source dates. A negative interval means the end event came first; when date-only inputs leave the order open, the result says so. Date-only inputs are approximate. The earliest evidence wins: KEV report dates and sightings are labelled as such. Records describing another vulnerability are listed but never calculated from, and a PoC alone does not establish exploitation. Missing patch evidence does not prove that no patch exists. Filters below change the event list only.

Vulnerabilities whose description is nearest to this one in the vector space of the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-biencoder model. This is a similarity search over the bi-encoder space (plain cosine), not a classification, and it has no measured accuracy.
