# CVE-2025-30657: Junos OS: Processing of a specific BGP update causes the SRRD process to crash

- Severity: CVSS 5.3 (Medium), CNA
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L
- CISA SSVC: exploitation=none, automatable=yes, technicalImpact=partial
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Fixed in: 21.2R3-S9, 21.4R3-S10, 22.2R3-S6, 22.4R3
- Published: 2025-04-09 · Updated: 2025-04-09

## Affected

- Juniper Networks Junos OS: fixed in 21.2R3-S9; from 21.4, fixed in 21.4R3-S10; from 22.2, fixed in 22.2R3-S6; from 22.4, fixed in 22.4R3

## Description

An Improper Encoding or Escaping of Output vulnerability in the Sampling Route Record Daemon (SRRD) of Juniper Networks Junos OS allows an unauthenticated, network-based attacker to cause a Denial-of-Service (DoS). When a device configured for flow-monitoring receives a specific BGP update message, it is correctly processed internally by the routing protocol daemon (rpd), but when it's sent to SRRD it's encoded incorrectly which leads to a crash and momentary interruption of jflow processing until it automatically restarts. This issue does not affect traffic forwarding itself. This issue affects Junos OS: * All versions before 21.2R3-S9, * 21.4 versions before 21.4R3-S10, * 22.2 versions before 22.2R3-S6, * 22.4 versions before 22.4R3, * 23.2 versions before 23.2R1-S2, 23.2R2. This issue does not affected Junos OS Evolved.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on Juniper Networks Junos OS, upgrade to a fixed version (21.2R3-S9, 21.4R3-S10, 22.2R3-S6, 22.4R3) per the references below.
