CVE-2026-21905
📋 TL;DR
An unauthenticated attacker can send specially crafted SIP messages over TCP to trigger an infinite loop in Juniper's SIP ALG, crashing critical processes and causing a denial of service. This affects Junos OS on SRX Series and MX Series with specific service cards. Only TCP-based SIP traffic can exploit this vulnerability.
💻 Affected Systems
- Juniper Networks SRX Series
- Juniper Networks MX Series with MX-SPC3 service cards
- Juniper Networks MX Series with MS-MPC service cards

Learn more about Junos →⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact
Worst Case
Complete service disruption on affected devices, requiring manual intervention to restore functionality, potentially affecting network availability for extended periods.
Likely Case
Intermittent service outages as the flowd or mspmand processes crash and restart, degrading network performance and reliability.
If Mitigated
Limited impact with proper network segmentation and traffic filtering preventing malicious SIP traffic from reaching vulnerable devices.
🎯 Exploit Status
Attack requires sending specific SIP messages over TCP to vulnerable devices. No authentication needed.
🛠️ Fix & Mitigation
✅ Official Fix
Patch Version: 21.2R3-S10, 21.4R3-S12, 22.4R3-S8, 23.2R2-S5, 23.4R2-S6, 24.2R2-S3, 24.4R2-S1, 25.2R1-S1, 25.2R2 and later
Vendor Advisory: https://kb.juniper.net/JSA106004
Restart Required: Yes
Instructions:
1. Download appropriate Junos OS version from Juniper support portal. 2. Install using 'request system software add' command. 3. Reboot device after installation completes.
🔧 Temporary Workarounds
Disable SIP ALG
allDisables the SIP Application Layer Gateway feature that contains the vulnerability
set security alg sip disable
Block TCP SIP Traffic
allPrevent TCP-based SIP traffic from reaching vulnerable devices using firewall rules
set security policies from-zone untrust to-zone trust policy block-sip match source-address any
set security policies from-zone untrust to-zone trust policy block-sip match destination-address any
set security policies from-zone untrust to-zone trust policy block-sip match application junos-sip
set security policies from-zone untrust to-zone trust policy block-sip then deny
🧯 If You Can't Patch
- Implement strict network segmentation to isolate vulnerable devices from untrusted networks
- Deploy intrusion prevention systems (IPS) to detect and block malicious SIP traffic patterns
🔍 How to Verify
Check if Vulnerable:
Check Junos OS version with 'show version' and compare against affected versions list. Verify SIP ALG status with 'show security alg status'.Check Version:
show versionVerify Fix Applied:
After patching, verify version is updated with 'show version' and test SIP functionality if required.📡 Detection & Monitoring
Log Indicators:
- Repeated flowd or mspmand process crashes in system logs
- Watchdog timeout messages related to SIP processing
- Increased SIP ALG error rates
Network Indicators:
- Unusual TCP SIP traffic patterns to affected devices
- Multiple SIP messages with malformed headers
SIEM Query:
source="junos" AND ("flowd" OR "mspmand") AND ("crash" OR "watchdog" OR "timeout") AND "SIP"
