What is CVE-2025-60010?
CVE-2025-60010 is a medium-severity authentication bypass vulnerability in Juniper Junos, published on 9 Oct 2025. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.
Official description
A password aging vulnerability in the RADIUS client of Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved allows an authenticated, network-based attacker to access the device without enforcing the required password change.
Affected devices allow logins by users for whom the RADIUS server has responded with a reject and required the user to change the password as their password was expired. Therefore the policy mandating the password change is not enforced. This does not allow users to login with a wrong password, but only with the correct but expired one.
