Summary

A vulnerability exists in the Routing Protocol Daemon (rpd) of Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved, which allows local attackers with low privileges to exploit a command, specifically 'show bgp neighbor'. When executed, this command increases CPU utilization in rpd, leading to device crashes and restarts. Continued use of the command can result in a sustained Denial-of-Service (DoS) scenario. To be impacted, the device must have BGP RIB sharding and update-threading enabled.

Affected Version(s)

Junos OS 0 < 21.2R3-S9

Junos OS 21.4 < 21.4R3-S8

Junos OS 22.2 < 22.2R3-S6
