CVE-2025-30651
📋 TL;DR
An unauthenticated network attacker can send a specific ICMPv6 packet to cause the routing protocol daemon (rpd) to crash and restart, leading to denial of service. This affects Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved systems configured with IPv6 router advertisement. Continued attacks can cause sustained DoS.
💻 Affected Systems
- Juniper Networks Junos OS

Learn more about Junos →⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact
Worst Case
Sustained denial of service affecting network routing, potentially causing widespread network outages if critical routers are targeted.
Likely Case
Intermittent routing disruptions and service instability as rpd crashes and restarts repeatedly.
If Mitigated
Limited impact if IPv6 router advertisement is disabled or systems are patched, with only brief service interruptions.
🎯 Exploit Status
Exploitation requires sending specific ICMPv6 packets to vulnerable interfaces, which is straightforward for attackers with network access.
🛠️ Fix & Mitigation
✅ Official Fix
Patch Version: Junos OS: 21.2R3-S9, 21.4R3-S10, 22.2R3-S6, 22.4R3-S4, 23.2R2-S2, 23.4R2; Junos OS Evolved: 21.2R3-S9-EVO, 21.4R3-S10-EVO, 22.2R3-S6-EVO, 22.4R3-S4-EVO, 23.2R2-S2-EVO, 23.4R2-EVO
Vendor Advisory: https://supportportal.juniper.net/JSA96461
Restart Required: Yes
Instructions:
1. Download appropriate patch from Juniper support portal. 2. Apply patch following Juniper upgrade procedures. 3. Reboot device to complete installation.
🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Disable IPv6 Router Advertisement
allRemove or disable 'protocols router-advertisement' configuration on interfaces to prevent exploitation.
delete protocols router-advertisement
Filter ICMPv6 Traffic
allImplement firewall rules to block or limit ICMPv6 packets to vulnerable interfaces.
set firewall family inet6 filter BLOCK-ICMPV6 term 1 from protocol icmp6
set firewall family inet6 filter BLOCK-ICMPV6 term 1 then discard
🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Disable IPv6 router advertisement on all interfaces
- Implement network segmentation to limit exposure to untrusted networks
🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Check if system is running affected Junos version and has 'protocols router-advertisement' configured: show configuration protocols router-advertisementCheck Version:
show versionVerify Fix Applied:
Verify patch installation with 'show version' and confirm version is patched. Check rpd process stability after applying fix.📡 Detection & Monitoring
Log Indicators:
- rpd crash logs in /var/log/messages
- Repeated rpd restarts
- ICMPv6 packet anomalies in traffic logs
Network Indicators:
- Unusual ICMPv6 traffic patterns to router interfaces
- Increased rpd restart events
SIEM Query:
source="junos" AND ("rpd" AND "crash") OR ("ICMPv6" AND "router-advertisement")
