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-2026-101973 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Juniper Networks Junos OS. 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-2026-101973/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-101973/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-101973","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-101973/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-101973","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8w7w-9xwf-7fcj"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Junos OS","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated remote attackers can cause denial of service via malformed packets during certificate re-enrollment in Junos OS.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"juniper","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":8.7,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:L","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-476","name":"NULL Pointer Dereference"}],"description":"A NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in the pkid component of Juniper Networks Junos OS allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to cause a denial of service via a malformed packet received during CMP enrollment or automatic certificate re-enrollment.","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":"Junos OS: Malformed packet causes pkid denial of service when certificate re-enrollment is used","id":"CVE-2026-101973","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"null_dereference","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in Junos OS","id":"CVE-2026-101974"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved: Malformed OSPF packets causes routing disruption when OSPF is enabled","id":"CVE-2026-101972"},"products":["Junos OS"],"published":"2026-10-14","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-14","vendors":["Juniper Networks"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated remote attackers can cause denial of service via malformed packets during certificate re-enrollment in Junos OS.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-101973/"}
