Juniper ScreenOS < 6.3.0r25 Etherleak Vulnerability (JSA10841)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 106197

Synopsis

The remote host is affected by an information leakage vulnerability.

Description

The version of Juniper ScreenOS running on the remote host is 6.3.x prior to 6.3.0r25. It is, therefore, affected by a flaw that may allow a remote attacker (on the same network segment) to gain access to fragments of system memory or data from previously submitted packets.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Juniper ScreenOS version 6.3.0r25 or later. Alternatively, apply the workaround referenced in the vendor's advisory.
