Title:Juniper Networks Junos OS Certification Validation Vulnerability
Summary:Junos OS is prone to a certification verification vulnerability.
Description:Summary:
Junos OS is prone to a certification verification vulnerability.

Vulnerability Insight:

presents a self-signed certificate as its end entity certificate with its issuer name matching one of the
valid CA certificates enrolled in Junos, the peer certificate validation is skipped and the peer certificate
is treated as valid.

Vulnerability Impact:
An attacker may be able to generate a specially crafted self-signed
certificate and bypass certificate validation.

Affected Software/OS:
Junos OS 12.1, 12.3, 13.3, 14.1, 14.2 and 15.1

Solution:
New builds of Junos OS software are available from Juniper.

CVSS Score:
6.4
