Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.106061
Category:JunOS Local Security Checks
Title:Juniper Networks Junos OS LDP DoS Vulnerability
Summary:Junos OS is prone to a Denial of Service vulnerability with;LDP enabled.
Description:Summary:
Junos OS is prone to a Denial of Service vulnerability with
LDP enabled.

Vulnerability Insight:
If LDP is enabled via the 'protocols ldp' configuration option
on a device running Junos OS, receipt of a crafted LDP packet may cause the RPD routing process to crash
and restart. The interface on which the packet arrives does not need to have LDP enabled. As long as
one interface to the peer has LDP enabled, the packet will be sent to Routing Engine for further
processing, exposing the router to a denial of service (RPD crash).

Vulnerability Impact:
An attacker can cause a denial of service condition by crashing
the RPD routing process.

Affected Software/OS:
Junos OS 13.2, 13.3, 14.1, 14.2 and 15.1

Solution:
New builds of Junos OS software are available from Juniper. As
a workaround disable LDP.

CVSS Score:
4.3

CVSS Vector:
AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P
