receives a specifically malformed packet this will cause a flowd crash and restart. This issue affects Junos OS: * 22.1 releases 22.1R1 and later before 22.2R3-S5, * 22.3 releases before 22.3R3-S4, * 22.4 releases before 22.4R3-S4, * 23.2 releases before 23.2R2-S2, * 23.4 releases before 23.4R2-S1, * 24.2 releases before 24.2R1-S1, 24.2R2. Please note that the PR does indicate that earlier versions have been fixed as well, but these won't be adversely impacted by this.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

SI-10 Information Input Validation good match

SI-10 directly requires validation of information inputs, which structurally prevents type-validation failures from being introduced or exploitable.

A.8.29 Security testing in development and acceptance mostly match
finds

Security testing can detect type-validation flaws but does not prevent them during development.

A.8.25 Secure development life cycle partial match
prevents

Secure development lifecycle mandates input validation and type checking to prevent improper type handling.

A.8.26 Application security requirements partial match
prevents

Application security requirements explicitly include validation of input data types and formats.

A.8.27 Secure system architecture and engineering principles partial match
prevents

Secure architecture principles promote defensive input handling and type enforcement at system boundaries.

A.8.28 Secure coding partial match
prevents

Secure coding standards directly require proper type validation of all external inputs.
