This issue affects Junos OS 15.1X49, 17.3, 17.4, 18.1, 18.2, 18.3, 18.4, 19.1, 19.2, 19.3, 19.4, 20.1. This issue affects Junos OS Evolved 19.3, 19.4, 20.1.
An improper input validation vulnerability in the Routing Protocol Daemon (RPD) service of Juniper Networks Junos OS allows an attacker to send a malformed RSVP packet when bidirectional LSPs are in use, which when received by an egress router crashes the RPD causing a Denial of Service (DoS) condition. Continued receipt of the packet will sustain the Denial of Service.
This issue affects:

If bidirectional LSPs are running in the network, when changing family mpls maximum-labels on an interface, first disable RSVP for this interface.
You can include the disable statement at the following hierarchy levels:
[edit protocols rsvp interface interface-name ]
[edit logical-systems logical-system-name protocols rsvp interface interface-name ]
See the MPLS RSVP disable configuration guide for further details.
