An Authentication Bypass Using an Alternate Path or Channel vulnerability in Juniper Networks Session Smart Router or conductor running with a redundant peer allows a network based attacker to bypass authentication and take full control of the device. Only routers or conductors that are running in high-availability redundant configurations are affected by this vulnerability. No other Juniper Networks products or platforms are affected by this issue. This issue affects: Session Smart Router: * All versions before 5.6.15, * from 6.0 before 6.1.9-lts, * from 6.2 before 6.2.5-sts. Session Smart Conductor: * All versions before 5.6.15, * from 6.0 before 6.1.9-lts, * from 6.2 before 6.2.5-sts. WAN Assurance Router: * 6.0 versions before 6.1.9-lts, * 6.2 versions before 6.2.5-sts.
The product requires authentication, but the product has an alternate path or channel that does not require authentication.
https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/288.html →Open in CWE collection →An adversary crafts a request to a target that results in the target listing/indexing the content of a directory as output. One common method of triggering directory contents as output is to construct a request containing a path that terminates in a directory name rather than a file name since many applications are configured to provide a list of the directory's contents when such a request is received. An adversary can use this to explore the directory tree on a target as well as learn the names of files. This can often end up revealing test files, backup files, temporary files, hidden files, configuration files, user accounts, script contents, as well as naming conventions, all of which can be used by an attacker to mount additional attacks.
