When the 'bgp-error-tolerance' feature â€" designed to help mitigate remote session resets from malformed path attributes â€" is enabled, a BGP UPDATE containing a specifically crafted set of transitive attributes can cause the RPD routing process to crash and restart. Devices with BGP enabled that do not have 'bgp-error-tolerance' configured are not vulnerable to this issue. Affected releases are Juniper Networks Junos OS 13.3 prior to 13.3R10-S2; 14.1 prior to 14.1R8-S4, 14.1R9; 14.1X50 prior to 14.1X50-D185; 14.1X53 prior to 14.1X53-D45, 14.1X53-D50; 14.2 prior to 14.2R7-S7, 14.2R8; 15.1 prior to 15.1F5-S8, 15.1F6-S7, 15.1R5-S6, 15.1R6-S2, 15.1R7; 15.1X49 prior to 15.1X49-D100; 15.1X53 prior to 15.1X53-D64, 15.1X53-D70; 16.1 prior to 16.1R3-S4, 16.1R4-S3, 16.1R5; 16.2 prior to 16.2R1-S5, 16.2R2; 17.1 prior to 17.1R1-S3, 17.1R2; 17.2 prior to 17.2R1-S2, 17.2R2; 17.2X75 prior to 17.2X75-D50.

Solution

No solution given by the vendor.


Workaround

If 'bgp-error-tolerance' is enabled, disabling this option under 'protocols bgp' will mitigate this issue. Note that when the error handling feature is off, the router is vulnerable to session resets from malformed path attributes. However, this is RFC 4271 compliant behavior.
