An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2016-1260 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Juniper Junos. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-1260/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-1260/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-1260","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-1260/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-1260","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-p5gw-f2xp-fjpf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Juniper EX4300 switch","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can cause network loops and bandwidth consumption on Juniper EX4300 switches via Spanning Tree Protocol traffic.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"junos","vendor":"juniper"}],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-399","name":null}],"description":"Juniper Junos OS before 13.2X51-D36, 14.1X53 before 14.1X53-D25, and 15.2 before 15.2R1 on EX4300 series switches allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (network loop and bandwidth consumption) via unspecified vectors related to Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) traffic.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-1260","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"juniper:junos","products":["juniper:junos"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Junos: vulnerabilities in J-Web (CVE-2016-1261)","id":"CVE-2016-1261"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-1258"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2016-01-15","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Juniper Junos OS EX Series and SRX Series PHP External Variable Modification","id":"CVE-2023-36845","kev_date_added":"2023-11-13","published":"2023-08-17"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Juniper Junos OS Path Traversal","id":"CVE-2020-1631","kev_date_added":"2022-03-25","published":"2020-05-04"},{"cvss_score":6.7,"headline":"Juniper Junos OS Improper Isolation or Compartmentalization","id":"CVE-2025-21590","kev_date_added":"2025-03-13","published":"2025-03-12"},{"cvss_score":5.3,"headline":"Juniper Junos OS SRX Series Missing Authentication for Critical Function","id":"CVE-2023-36851","kev_date_added":"2023-11-13","published":"2023-09-26"},{"cvss_score":5.3,"headline":"Juniper Junos OS EX Series PHP External Variable Modification","id":"CVE-2023-36844","kev_date_added":"2023-11-13","published":"2023-08-17"},{"cvss_score":5.3,"headline":"Juniper Junos OS SRX Series Missing Authentication for Critical Function","id":"CVE-2023-36846","kev_date_added":"2023-11-13","published":"2023-08-17"},{"cvss_score":5.3,"headline":"Juniper Junos OS EX Series Missing Authentication for Critical Function","id":"CVE-2023-36847","kev_date_added":"2023-11-13","published":"2023-08-17"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-05","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can cause network loops and bandwidth consumption on Juniper EX4300 switches via Spanning Tree Protocol traffic.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-1260/"}
