"The version of Junos OS installed on the remote host is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the JSA70196
advisory.
- An Uncontrolled Resource Consumption vulnerability in the PFE management daemon (evo-pfemand) of Juniper
Networks Junos OS Evolved allows an unauthenticated, network-based attacker to cause an FPC crash leading
to a Denial of Service (DoS). When a specific SNMP GET operation or a specific CLI command is executed
this will cause a GUID resource leak, eventually leading to exhaustion and result in an FPC crash and
reboot. GUID exhaustion will trigger a syslog message like one of the following for example: evo-
pfemand[<pid>]: get_next_guid: Ran out of Guid Space ... evo-aftmand-zx[<pid>]: get_next_guid: Ran out of
Guid Space ... This leak can be monitored by running the following command and taking note of the value in
