What is CVE-2025-52981?
A vulnerability exists in the flow processing daemon (flowd) of Juniper Networks' Junos OS, affecting SRX1600, SRX2300, SRX 4000 Series, and SRX5000 Series devices. An unauthenticated network-based attacker can exploit this flaw by sending a specific sequence of Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM) packets, triggering an unexpected crash of the flowd process. This results in a Denial-of-Service condition, disrupting the normal operation of affected devices. Ensure timely updates to mitigate this risk and maintain network integrity.
