Junos OS: Improper Validation of Specified Quantity in Input
CVE-2026-102065 is a high-severity improper validation of specified quantity in input vulnerability in Junos OS from Juniper Networks, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.5 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. The record lists versions 24.2R2-S5.5, 24.4R2-S5, 25.2R2-S2 as the first without the flaw, so updating Junos OS to one of those releases or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.46% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.
High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.
What to do
- Update Junos OS to 24.2R2-S5.5 or 24.4R2-S5 or 25.2R2-S2 or 25.4R1-S3, whichever matches your release line, or a later version.
- Update Junos OS Evolved to 24.2R2-S5.6-EVO or 24.4R2-S5-EVO or 25.2R2-S2-EVO or 25.4R1-S3-EVO, whichever matches your release line, or a later version.
- Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.
