An Incorrect Calculation of Buffer Size vulnerability in Juniper Networks Junos OS SRX 5000 Series devices using SPC2 line cards while ALGs are enabled allows an attacker sending specific crafted packets to cause a transit traffic Denial of Service (DoS). Continued receipt and processing of these specific packets will sustain the Denial of Service condition. This issue affects: Juniper Networks Junos OS SRX 5000 Series with SPC2 with ALGs enabled. * All versions earlier than 21.2R3-S7; * 21.4 versions earlier than 21.4R3-S6; * 22.1 versions earlier than 22.1R3-S5; * 22.2 versions earlier than 22.2R3-S3; * 22.3 versions earlier than 22.3R3-S2; * 22.4 versions earlier than 22.4R3; * 23.2 versions earlier than 23.2R2.
The following software releases have been updated to resolve this specific issue: 21.2R3-S7, 21.4R3-S6, 22.1R3-S5, 22.2R3-S3, 22.3R3-S2, 22.4R3, 23.2R2, 23.4R1, and all subsequent releases.
There are no known workarounds for this issue other than reducing risk by disabling as many ALGs as possible until the device can be upgraded.
