CVE-2024-30405
Junos OS: SRX 5000 Series with SPC2: Processing of specific crafted packets when ALG is enabled causes a transit traffic Denial of Service
An Incorrect Calculation of Buffer Size vulnerability in Juniper Networks Junos OS SRX 5000 Series devices using SPC2 line cards while ALGs are enabled allows an attacker sending specific crafted packets to cause a transit traffic Denial of Service (DoS).
Continued receipt and processing of these specific packets will sustain the Denial of Service condition.
