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-2026-101996 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-2026-101996/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-101996/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-101996","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-101996/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-101996","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-cvcv-ghr7-j8gj"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Juniper Junos OS","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An adjacent attacker can crash the l2ald daemon on Juniper devices configured for MC-LAG by sending inconsistent ICCP peer messages.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"juniper","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:A/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-617","name":"Reachable Assertion"}],"description":"A Reachable Assertion vulnerability in the \n\nl2ald \n\ndaemon of Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved devices configured for MC-LAG/ICCP allows an adjacent attacker to cause a denial of service via an inconsistent ICCP peer message.","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 and Junos OS Evolved: An inconsistent ICCP peer message causes an l2ald crash when MC-LAG is configured","id":"CVE-2026-101996","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"SQL injection in Junos OS","id":"CVE-2026-101997"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved: Malformed ICCP packets cause l2ald memory disclosure and disruption","id":"CVE-2026-101995"},"products":["Junos OS","Junos OS Evolved"],"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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-14","vendors":["Juniper Networks"]},"summary":"An adjacent attacker can crash the l2ald daemon on Juniper devices configured for MC-LAG by sending inconsistent ICCP peer messages.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-101996/"}
