Frequently Asked Questions

1

Which deployments are exposed to this issue?

SRX Series devices are exposed when the custom URL-feed feature is configured and the device processes responses from a custom URL-feed server. The vulnerability is in the Unified Threat Management daemon (utmd).

2

What does an attacker need to exploit it?

An attacker must be able to provide a malicious response from a configured custom URL-feed server. No authentication or user interaction is required, but exploitation has high attack complexity.

3

What is the potential impact of successful exploitation?

Successful exploitation allows an unauthenticated network attacker to commit arbitrary device configuration with root privileges. This can affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
