An Improper Input Validation vulnerability in Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved allows an unauthenticated, adjacent attacker, sending a specific genuine BGP packet in an already established BGP session to reset only that session causing a Denial of Service (DoS). An attacker repeatedly sending the packet will sustain the Denial of Service (DoS).This issue affects Junos OS: * 25.2 versions before 25.2R2 This issue does not affect Junos OS versions before 25.2R1. This issue affects Junos OS Evolved: * 25.2-EVO versions before 25.2R2-EVO This issue does not affect Junos OS Evolved versions before 25.2R1-EVO. eBGP and iBGP are affected. IPv4 and IPv6 are affected.
This vulnerability carries a HIGH severity rating with a CVSS v3.1 score of 7.4, indicating it requires adjacent network access with relatively low complexity without requiring user interaction and does not require pre-existing privileges . The vulnerability impacts and availability (service disruption) for affected systems. Impacting 2 products from juniper, from juniper organizations running these solutions should prioritize assessment and patching.
Reported in 2026, this vulnerability emerged during an era marked by increased sophistication in supply chain attacks, cloud infrastructure vulnerabilities, and software-as-a-service (SaaS) security challenges. Security practices during this period emphasized zero-trust architectures, container security, and API protection.

SecUtils normalizes and enriches National Vulnerability Database (NVD) records by standardizing vendor and product identifiers, aggregating vulnerability metadata from both NVD and MITRE sources, and providing structured context for security teams. For juniper's affected products, we extract Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) data, Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) classifications, CVSS severity metrics, and reference data to enable rapid vulnerability prioritization and asset correlation. This record contains no exploit code, proof-of-concept instructions, or attack methodologies—only defensive intelligence necessary for patch management, risk assessment, and security operations.
