It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-44190 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Juniper Junos Os Evolved. 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-2023-44190/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-44190/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-44190","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-44190/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-44190","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-2xg8-857g-4j2x"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Juniper network router","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Network-adjacent attackers can bypass MAC validation on Juniper PTX routers, causing traffic loops and downstream network congestion.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"juniper","cpe":[{"product":"junos_os_evolved","vendor":"juniper"}],"cvss":{"score":6.1,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-346","name":"Origin Validation Error"}],"description":"An Origin Validation vulnerability in MAC address validation of Juniper Networks Junos OS Evolved on PTX10001, PTX10004, PTX10008, and PTX10016 devices allows a network-adjacent attacker to bypass MAC address checking, allowing MAC addresses not intended to reach the adjacent LAN to be forwarded to the downstream network.
