Summary

A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability in the jdhcpd process of Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved platforms allows an adjacent unauthenticated attacker to cause denial of service or execute arbitrary code with root privileges via a malformed DHCPv4 server response when the DHCPv4 local-client feature is used.

Risk Assessment

An adjacent-network attacker can gain root privileges or cause a service crash, potentially leading to full device compromise or network disruption.

Recommendation

Apply Junos OS/Junos OS Evolved updates; if the DHCPv4 local-client feature is not required, consider disabling it.
