Juniper NetScreen-Security Manager Remote DoS flaw Vulnerability Scan
Vulnerability Scan Summary Acertains if Juniper NSM guiSrv is vulnerable to remote DoS
Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Test
Synopsis :
The remote server is affected by a remote denial of service flaw.
Description :
The version of Juniper NetScreen-Security Manager (NSM) installed on
the remote host may allow a possible hacker to deny service to legitimate
users using specially-crafted long strings to the guiSrv and devSrv
processes. A watchdog service included in Juniper NSM, though,
automatically restarts the application.
By repeatedly sending a malformed request, a possible hacker may permanently
deny access to legitimate users.
