This issue affects Junos OS 12.3, 12.3X48, 14.1X50, 14.1X53, 15.1, 15.1X49, 15.1X53.
When an attacker sends a specific crafted Ethernet Operation, Administration, and Maintenance (Ethernet OAM) packet to a target device, it may improperly handle the incoming malformed data and fail to sanitize this incoming data resulting in an overflow condition. This overflow condition in Juniper Networks Junos OS allows an attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) condition by coring the CFM daemon.
Continued receipt of these packets may cause an extended Denial of Service condition.
