Junos OS: SRX5000 series: Kernel crash (vmcore) upon receipt of a specific packet on fxp0 interface
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 30/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 1.5% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 74.9% of all records.
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- According to the record, no fixed version is available yet.
Low priority for now. Update when a fix is released; follow the vendor's advisory.
Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it
Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
Receipt of a specific packet on the out-of-band management interface fxp0 may cause the system to crash and restart (vmcore). By continuously sending a specially crafted packet to the fxp0 interface, an attacker can repetitively crash the rpd process causing prolonged Denial of Service (DoS). Affected releases are Juniper Networks SRX5000 Series: 12.1X46 versions prior to 12.1X46-D82; 12.3X48 versions prior to 12.3X48-D80; 15.1X49 versions prior to 15.1X49-D160.

No fix version is recorded for this entry. Check the references for vendor advisories.
Exploit status
No known public exploit
No public exploit has been observed yet. That doesn't mean you're safe, only that the bar is a little higher.
Research context
For pentesters and researchers: attack profile, score disagreement, timeline, patch commits, credits, variant and chain candidates, bug bounty scope. All derived from existing data; no exploit code.
Timeline
From publication to today: proof of concept, Metasploit module, CISA KEV and fix record. Dates are as reported by the sources.
No dated events beyond publication.
