Another option is to disable the service by entering request pfe anomalies disable in the operating system’s command line.
Sharma said Juniper vulnerabilities have attracted a lot of attention from hackers over the years because of the premium positioning the routers give if long-term footholds are established. “As a network operating system, Junos sits at the crossroads of major control points like identity, policy, and traffic, which means a single exploit can scale quickly across valuable networks,” he said. “Additionally, these footholds provide attackers a longer window to find and exploit vulnerable devices, since core network gear is painful to apply patching to due to long downtimes.”
To prevent vulnerabilities such as the current flaw from leading to exploitation, organizations need a defense platform that can continuously monitor for anomalies across networks and alert security teams when malicious behavior is detected, he added.
