Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved: Receipt of a specific SNMPv3 request results in memory leak and eventual snmpd crash
An Out-of-bounds Write vulnerability in the SNMP daemon (snmpd) of Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved allows an authenticated network-based attacker sending specific valid SNMPv3 queries to trigger a memory leak. Over time, continuous receipt of these queries will result in snmpd process memory exhaustion, resulting in a process crash and restart, impacting the ability to monitor the system via SNMP. Memory usage can be monitored using the following command: user@device> show system processes extensive | match snmpd This issue affects: Junos OS: * all versions before 21.2R3-S8; * from 21.4 before 21.4R3-S7; * from 22.1 before 22.1R3-S6; * from 22.2 before 22.2R3-S4; * from 22.3 before 22.3R3-S3; * from 22.4 before 22.4R3-S2; * from 23.2 before 23.2R2; * from 23.4 before 23.4R2.
