What is CVE-2024-39515?

A vulnerability exists within the routing protocol daemon (rpd) of Juniper Networks' Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved, stemming from improper validation of consistency within input data. This allows unauthenticated network-based attackers to exploit a specially crafted BGP packet, potentially leading to a crash and restart of the rpd service. A sustained bombardment of this malformed packet can induce a prolonged Denial of Service (DoS) condition, where the rpd may occasionally fail to restart automatically, necessitating a manual intervention via the CLI command 'restart routing'. The vulnerability affects both iBGP and eBGP sessions over IPv4 and IPv6, specifically targeting systems with BGP traceoptions enabled.
