The bsnmp software library is a SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) implementation included with Juniper Networks Junos OS for the snmpd process.
A programming error allows a remote user to read unrelated data or trigger a snmpd process crash.
This issue affects Juniper Networks Junos OS
This issue does not affect Junos OS with FreeBSD 6, for example Junos OS 15.1X49.
To verifiy which FreeBSD version is used in Junos OS, the administrator can use the following commands:
user&device> start shell
% sysctl kern.osreldate
kern.osreldate: 601000 <-- start with 6, this is FreeBSD6 base (6.1)
kern.osreldate: 1001510 <-- start with 10, FreeBSD10 base.
