HighCVSS 8.8Exploitation Probability (EPSS)
Low risk14th percentile - higher than 14% of all known CVEs
Summary
An Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory vulnerability in ConfigDirector in Juniper Networks Session Smart Router and Session Smart Conductor allows an authenticated REST user to read, overwrite, or delete arbitrary certificate and key files on the host filesystem via the certificate and private-key REST API.
Risk Assessment
An authenticated user can compromise the confidentiality and integrity of cryptographic keys, potentially leading to further attacks.
Recommendation
Update the software to a patched version and restrict REST user permissions to the minimum necessary.

An Insufficient Verification of Data Authenticity vulnerability in PCLI in Juniper Networks Session Smart Router and Session Smart Conductor allows an attacker with write access to the model cache directory to execute arbitrary code and escalate privileges via the processing of unverified cache files.
- CVE-2026-103401High
An Improper Link Resolution Before File Access ('Link Following') vulnerability in the unauthenticated web server handlers in Juniper Networks Session Smart Router and Session Smart Conductor allows a local unprivileged user to overwrite arbitrary files as root via unauthenticated API endpoints. This vulnerability can be exploited on Mist-managed routers and on unmanaged Routers that have not yet been onboarded to a Conductor. Routers already managed by Conductor are not affected.
