"The version of Junos OS installed on the remote host is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the JSA75742
advisory.
- A Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition')
vulnerability in the Flow-processing Daemon (flowd) of Juniper Networks Junos OS on SRX Series allows an
unauthenticated, network-based attacker to cause a Denial-of-Service (Dos). On SRX Series devices when two
different threads try to simultaneously process a queue which is used for TCP events flowd will crash. One
of these threads can not be triggered externally, so the exploitation of this race condition is outside
the attackers direct control. Continued exploitation of this issue will lead to a sustained DoS. This
issue affects Juniper Networks Junos OS: * 21.2 versions earlier than 21.2R3-S5; * 21.3 versions earlier
than 21.3R3-S5; * 21.4 versions earlier than 21.4R3-S4; * 22.1 versions earlier than 22.1R3-S3; * 22.2
versions earlier than 22.2R3-S1; * 22.3 versions earlier than 22.3R2-S2, 22.3R3; * 22.4 versions earlier
than 22.4R2-S1, 22.4R3. This issue does not affect Juniper Networks Junos OS versions earlier than 21.2R1.
