An Improper Restriction of Communication Channel to Intended Endpoints vulnerability in Juniper Networks Junos OS Evolved on ACX 7000 Series allows an unauthenticated, network-based attacker to cause a limited information disclosure and availability impact to the device.

Due to a wrong initialization, specific processes which should only be able to communicate internally within the device can be reached over the network via open ports.

This issue affects Junos OS Evolved on ACX 7000 Series:

  • All versions before 21.4R3-S7-EVO,
  • 22.2-EVO

versions

before 22.2R3-S4-EVO,

  • 22.3-EVO versions before 22.3R3-S3-EVO,
  • 22.4-EVO versions before 22.4R3-S2-EVO,
  • 23.2-EVO versions before 23.2R2-EVO,
  • 23.4-EVO versions before 23.4R1-S1-EVO, 23.4R2-EVO.

Weakness

The product establishes a communication channel to (or from) an endpoint for privileged or protected operations, but it does not properly ensure that it is communicating with the correct endpoint.

Extended Description

Attackers might be able to spoof the intended endpoint from a different system or process, thus gaining the same level of access as the intended endpoint. While this issue frequently involves authentication between network-based clients and servers, other types of communication channels and endpoints can have this weakness.
