July 10, 2006

Product Overview:

Vulnerability Details:

attacker to obtain full administrative access to the Juniper DX appliance.

within the web administration interface. A malicious user may insert
content into the username login field which will then be executed by
administrative users when viewing the System Log.

Affected Versions:
Juniper DX 5.1.x
Olders versions may also be affected.

Workarounds:
Control network access to the DX web administration console.
