⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Complete routing daemon crash leading to network-wide service disruption, requiring manual intervention to restore routing functionality.

🟠

Likely Case

Targeted DoS attack causing routing instability and packet loss until rpd restarts or system reboots.

🟢

If Mitigated

No impact if CoS-based forwarding with cos-next-hop-map is not configured.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH - Attackers can trigger this remotely without authentication from any network location.
🏢 Internal Only: HIGH - Internal attackers or compromised systems can also trigger this vulnerability.

🎯 Exploit Status

Public PoC: ✅ No
Weaponized: UNKNOWN
Unauthenticated Exploit: ⚠️ Yes
Complexity: LOW

Attack requires sending specific routing updates but no authentication needed. Exploit details not publicly disclosed.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: Junos OS: 20.4R3-S10, 21.2R3-S8, 21.3R3, 21.4R3, 22.1R2 or later. Junos OS Evolved: 21.2R3-S8-EVO, 21.3R3-EVO, 21.4R3-EVO, 22.1R2-EVO or later.

Vendor Advisory: https://supportportal.juniper.net/JSA79174

Restart Required: Yes

Instructions:

1. Download appropriate patch version from Juniper support portal. 2. Install using 'request system software add' command. 3. Reboot device after installation. 4. Verify patch installation with 'show version'.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Disable CoS-based forwarding with cos-next-hop-map

all

Remove or modify policy maps containing cos-next-hop-map actions to eliminate vulnerable configuration.

configure
delete class-of-service forwarding-policy-map [policy-name]
commit

Implement routing update filtering

all

Use routing policies to filter suspicious routing updates from untrusted sources.

configure
set policy-options policy-statement FILTER-IN term REJECT from protocol bgp
set policy-options policy-statement FILTER-IN term REJECT then reject
commit

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Disable CoS-based forwarding configuration with cos-next-hop-map actions immediately.
  • Implement strict routing update filtering and network segmentation to limit attack surface.

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Check if CoS-based forwarding is configured: 'show configuration class-of-service forwarding-policy-map | display set' and look for cos-next-hop-map. Then check version with 'show version'.

Check Version:

show version

Verify Fix Applied:

Verify patch installation: 'show version' should show patched version. Verify CoS configuration remains secure.

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • rpd core dumps
  • routing daemon crash messages
  • unexpected routing protocol restarts
  • memory corruption errors in system logs

Network Indicators:

  • Unusual routing updates from unexpected sources
  • Sudden routing table instability
  • Increased BGP update traffic

SIEM Query:

source="junos" AND ("rpd" OR "routing") AND ("core" OR "crash" OR "memory" OR "corruption")
