Junos OS: An ICCP peer causes dot1xd to crash when dot1x synchronization is enabled

CISA KEV is observed exploitation evidence. FIRST EPSS is a dated prediction of exploitation in the next 30 days. Missing scores are unknown. This collector requests predictions only for explicit CVE aliases in the public NuGet archive; Microsoft release views retain their existing prediction scope.

No collected risk observation for these identifiers. This does not establish absence of exploitation or a zero probability.

A Stack-based Buffer Overflow vulnerability in the dot1x daemon of Juniper Networks Junos OS devices operating as Junos Fusion Aggregation Devices allows an adjacent attacker acting as the configured ICCP peer to cause a denial of service and potentially execute code as root via. The issue is triggered when dot1x synchronization is enabled for the required Fusion satellite topology.
