Description

Juniper Junos OS before 13.3R9, 14.1R6 before 14.1R6-S1, and 14.1 before 14.1R7, when configured with VPLS routing-instances, allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive mbuf information by injecting a flood of Ethernet frames with IPv6 MAC addresses directly into a connected interface.
