Summary
A Function Call With Incorrect Argument Type vulnerability in the sensor interface of Juniper Networks Junos OS Evolved on PTX Series allows a network-based, authenticated attacker with low privileges to cause a complete Denial of Service (DoS). The issue occurs when colored SRTE policy tunnels are provisioned via PCEP and gRPC is used to monitor traffic, causing evo-aftmand to crash, provided the Originator ASN field in PCEP contains a value larger than 65,535.
Risk Assessment
An attacker could cause a persistent service outage on the Juniper device, requiring manual restart and leading to network unavailability.
Recommendation
Update Junos OS Evolved to a fixed version (e.g., 22.4R3-S9-EVO, 23.2R2-S6-EVO, 23.4R2-S7-EVO, 24.2R2-S4-EVO, 24.4R2-S2-EVO, 25.2R1-S2-EVO or later).

An OS command injection vulnerability in the bootzd zero-touch provisioning daemon of Junos OS Evolved allows an unauthenticated attacker on the management LAN to execute commands as root via a crafted DHCP response.
- CVE-2026-102085Medium
An improper restriction of communication channel to intended endpoints vulnerability in Juniper Networks Junos OS Evolved allows an unauthenticated, network-based attacker to cause limited information disclosure and availability impact to the device. Due to wrong initialization, a process that should only communicate internally can be reached over the network via an open port, leading to inadvertent exposure and increased CPU cycles spent processing ingress packets.

An Improper Validation of Specified Quantity in Input vulnerability in the routing protocol daemon (rpd) of Juniper Networks Junos OS Evolved on PTX Series allows an unauthenticated IS-IS peer to cause a denial of service.
- CVE-2026-101966High
A use of externally-controlled format string vulnerability in the jti-dialoutd of Junos OS Evolved allows an authenticated network attacker to cause persistent telemetry dial-out denial of service via a crafted analytics sensor resource submitted through gNMI listener.
- CVE-2026-101965High
A use of externally-controlled format string vulnerability in the gRPC daemon of Junos OS Evolved allows an authenticated network attacker to cause telemetry-service disruption, information disclosure, or potential root-level code execution via a crafted message to the gNMI service.
Original NVD description (English source)
A Function Call With Incorrect Argument Type vulnerability in the sensor interface of Juniper Networks Junos OS Evolved on PTX Series allows a network-based, authenticated attacker with low privileges to cause a complete Denial of Service (DoS). If colored SRTE policy tunnels are provisioned via PCEP, and gRPC is used to monitor traffic in these tunnels, evo-aftmand crashes and doesn't restart which leads to a complete and persistent service impact. The system has to be manually restarted to recover. The issue is seen only when the Originator ASN field in PCEP contains a value larger than 65,535 (32-bit ASN). The issue is not reproducible when SRTE policy tunnels are statically configured. This issue affects Junos OS Evolved on PTX Series: * all versions before 22.4R3-S9-EVO, * 23.2 versions before 23.2R2-S6-EVO, * 23.4 versions before 23.4R2-S7-EVO, * 24.2 versions before 24.2R2-S4-EVO, * 24.4 versions before 24.4R2-S2-EVO, * 25.2 versions before 25.2R1-S2-EVO, 25.2R2-EVO.
