2017-10 Security Bulletin: SRX Series: Cryptographic weakness in SRX300 Series
TPM Firmware (CVE-2017-10606)
PRODUCT AFFECTED:
This issue affects Juniper Networks Junos OS 15.1X49 prior to TPM firmware
version 4.43 on SRX300 Series.
PROBLEM:
Version 4.40 of the TPM (Trusted Platform Module) firmware has a weakness in
generating cryptographic keys that may allow an attacker to decrypt sensitive
information in SRX300 Series products. The TPM is used in the SRX300 Series to
encrypt sensitive configuration data. While other products also ship with a
TPM, no other products or platforms are affected by this vulnerability.
Customers can confirm the version of TPM firmware via the 'show security tpm
status' command:
user@junos> show security tpm status
TPM Status:
Enabled: yes
Owned: no
Master Binding Key: not-created
Master Encryption Key: not-configured
TPM Family: 1.2
TPM Firmware revision: 4.40
This issue was discovered by an external security researcher.
No other Juniper Networks products or platforms are affected by this issue.
Juniper SIRT is not aware of any malicious exploitation of this vulnerability.
This issue has been assigned CVE-2017-10606.
SOLUTION:
TPM firmware version 4.43 resolves this specific issue. Updating TPM firmware
requires one of the following software releases: Junos OS 15.1X49-D111*,
17.4R1, or any subsequent release.
Note: Junos OS 17.3 is unaffected by this issue since TPM functionality is not
supported in this release.
The TPM firmware is then updated via a special "jtpm" package available for
download along with the updated Junos OS package. After upgrading to a fixed
release above, execute the following command to update the TPM firmware:
user@junos> request system software add jtpm-15.1X49-D111-signed.tgz
When the TPM firmware is updated, the log message "TPM firmware updated
successfully." will appear on the screen. After updating the TPM firmware,
reboot the system using the request system reboot command.
Once system reboots, verify TPM status using the show security tpm status
command. The TPM Firmware revision should show as 4.43 instead of 4.40.
This issue is being tracked as PR 1293114 and is visible on the Customer
Support website.
*Due to unforeseen circumstances, Junos OS 15.1X49-D111 will not be available
until October 18, 2017.
WORKAROUND:
Until the TPM firmware can be updated, use access lists or firewall filters to
limit access to the router via CLI only from trusted hosts, and limit access
to the Junos shell only to trusted administrators.
IMPLEMENTATION:
Security vulnerabilities in Junos are fixed in the next available Maintenance
Release of each supported Junos version. In some cases, a Maintenance Release
is not planned to be available in an appropriate time-frame. For these cases,
Service Releases are made available in order to be more timely. Security
Advisory and Security Notices will indicate which Maintenance and Service
Releases contain fixes for the issues described. Upon request to JTAC,
customers will be provided download instructions for a Service Release.
Although Juniper does not provide formal Release Note documentation for a
Service Release, a list of "PRs fixed" can be provided on request.
MODIFICATION HISTORY:
2017-10-11: Initial Publication.
2017-10-11: Release of 15.1X49-D111 delayed until 2017-10-18. Workaround

============================================================
2017-10 Security Bulletin: SRX Series: SRX Series using IPv6 Sun/MS-RPC ALGs
may experience flowd crash on processing packets. (CVE-2017-10608)
PRODUCT AFFECTED:
This issue can affect all SRX Series services gateways.
PROBLEM:
Any SRX Series device with one or more ALGs enabled may experience a flowd
crash when traffic is processed by the Sun/MS-RPC ALGs. This vulnerability in
the Sun/MS-RPC ALG services component of Junos OS allows an attacker to cause
a repeated denial of service against the target. Repeated traffic in a cluster
may cause repeated flip-flop failure operations or full failure to the flowd
daemon halting traffic on all nodes.
Only IPv6 traffic is affected by this issue. IPv4 traffic is unaffected. This
issues is not seen with to-host traffic.
This issue has no relation with HA services themselves, only the ALG service.
Affected releases are Juniper Networks Junos OS 12.1X46 prior to 12.1X46-D55
on SRX; 12.1X47 prior to 12.1X47-D45 on SRX; 12.3X48 prior to 12.3X48-D32,
12.3X48-D35 on SRX; 15.1X49 prior to 15.1X49-D60 on SRX.
No other Juniper Networks products or platforms are affected by this issue.
Juniper SIRT is not aware of any malicious exploitation of this vulnerability,
however the issue has been seen in a production network.
This issue has been assigned CVE-2017-10608.
SOLUTION:
The following software releases have been updated to resolve this specific
issue: Junos OS 12.1X46-D55, 12.3X48-D32, 12.3X48-D35, 15.1X49-D60, 17.3R1 and
all subsequent releases.
This issue is being tracked as PR 1189443 and is visible on the Customer
Support website.
WORKAROUND:
Disable Sun/MS-RPC ALGs on the SRX Series device.
Disable IPv6 on the device.
example:
deactivate interfaces xe-0/0/0 unit 0 family inet6 address 2000::254/64
Filtering incoming IPv6, or Sun/MS-RPC from the device is also an option.
example:
set interfaces xe-0/0/0 unit 0 family inet6 filter input TEST ==> apply to
interface
set firewall family inet6 filter TEST term t1 from destination-port 135
set firewall family inet6 filter TEST term t1 then discard
IMPLEMENTATION:
How to obtain fixed software:
Security vulnerabilities in Junos are fixed in the next available Maintenance
Release of each supported Junos version. In some cases, a Maintenance Release
is not planned to be available in an appropriate time-frame. For these cases,
Service Releases are made available in order to be more timely. Security
Advisory and Security Notices will indicate which Maintenance and Service
Releases contain fixes for the issues described. Upon request to JTAC,
customers will be provided download instructions for a Service Release.

2017-10 Security Bulletin: SRX Series: Embedded ICMP may cause the flowd
process to crash (CVE-2017-10610)
PRODUCT AFFECTED:
This issue affects Junos OS 12.1X46, 12.3X48, 15.1X49. Affected platforms: SRX
Series.
PROBLEM:
On SRX Series devices, a crafted ICMP packet embedded within a NAT64 IPv6 to
IPv4 tunnel may cause the flowd process to crash. Repeated crashes of the
flowd process constitutes an extended denial of service condition for the SRX
Series device. This issue only occurs if NAT64 is configured.
No other Juniper Networks products or platforms are affected by this issue.
Juniper SIRT is not aware of any malicious exploitation of this vulnerability,
however, the issue has been seen in a production network.
This issue has been assigned CVE-2017-10610.
SOLUTION:
The following software releases have been updated to resolve this specific
issue: 12.1X46-D71, 12.3X48-D55, 15.1X49-D100, 17.3R1, and all subsequent
releases.
This issue is being tracked as PR 1270680 and is visible on the Customer
Support website.
WORKAROUND:
No viable workaround exists for this issue.
IMPLEMENTATION:
Security vulnerabilities in Junos are fixed in the next available Maintenance
Release of each supported Junos version. In some cases, a Maintenance Release
is not planned to be available in an appropriate time-frame. For these cases,
Service Releases are made available in order to be more timely. Security
