A Use After Free vulnerability in the routing protocol daemon of Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved allows a locally authenticated attacker with low privileges to cause Denial of Service (DoS). In a rib sharding scenario the rpd process will crash shortly after specific CLI command is issued. This issue is more likely to occur in a scenario with high route scale (>1M routes).
