Juniper ScreenOS 6.2.0r15 < 6.2.0r19 / 6.3.0r12 < 6.3.0r21 Multiple Vulnerabilities (JSA10713)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 87507

Language:

Synopsis

The remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The remote host is running a version of Juniper ScreenOS that is 6.2.x prior to 6.2.0r19 or 6.3.x prior to 6.3.0r21. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

- A backdoor exists that allows a remote attacker administrative access to the device over SSH or telnet.
(CVE-2015-7755)

- An unspecified flaw exists that allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to decrypt VPN traffic.
(CVE-2015-7756)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Juniper ScreenOS 6.2.0r19 / 6.3.0r21 or later.
Alternatively, apply the appropriate patch referenced in the vendor advisory.
