"The version of Junos OS installed on the remote host is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the JSA100066
advisory.

  - A Reachable Assertion vulnerability in the routing protocol daemon (rpd) of Juniper Networks Junos OS and
    Junos OS Evolved allows an adjacent, unauthenticated attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS).On all
    Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved devices, when route validation is enabled, a rare condition during BGP
    initial session establishment can lead to an rpd crash and restart. This occurs specifically when the
    connection request fails during error-handling scenario. Continued session establishment failures leads to
    a sustained DoS condition. This issue affects Junos OS: * All versions before 22.2R3-S6, * from 22.4
    before 22.4R3-S6, * from 23.2 before 23.2R2-S3, * from 23.4 before 23.4R2-S4, * from 24.2 before 24.2R2;
    Junos OS Evolved: * All versions before 22.2R3-S6-EVO, * from 22.4 before 22.4R3-S6-EVO, * from 23.2
    before 23.2R2-S3-EVO, * from 23.4 before 23.4R2-S4-EVO, * from 24.2 before 24.2R2-EVO. (CVE-2025-52958)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
