An Improper Check for Unusual or Exceptional Conditions vulnerability in the packet forwarding engine (pfe) of Juniper Networks Junos OS on MX Series allows an unauthenticated, network-based attacker to bypass the configured firewall filter and access the control-plane of the device.
On MX platforms with
MPC10, MPC11, LC4800 or LC9600
line cards, and MX304, firewall filters applied on a loopback interface lo0.n (where n is a non-0 number) don't get executed when lo0.n is in the global VRF / default routing-instance.
An affected configuration would be:
user@host# show configuration interfaces lo0 | display set set interfaces lo0 unit 1 family inet filter input <filter-name>
where a firewall filter is applied to a non-0 loopback interface, but that loopback interface is not referred to in any routing-instance (RI) configuration, which implies that it's used in the default RI.
The issue can be observed with the CLI command:
user@device> show firewall counter filter <filter_name>
not showing any matches.
