Frequently Asked Questions

Which deployments are exposed to this issue?

Exposure is limited to ACX, EX, and MX platforms that support draft Rosen MVPN and have Rosen-MVPN data-MDT enabled. Other platforms are not identified as affected.

What does an attacker need to exploit it?

An attacker does not need authentication or user interaction, but must be adjacent to the affected device. Exploitation involves sending a malformed Rosen-MVPN message.

What could successful exploitation allow?

Successful exploitation can disclose rpd heap memory and inject multicast join state. The provided severity vector indicates low confidentiality and integrity impact, with no availability impact.
