In short
A flaw in the routing daemon of Juniper Networks Junos OS allows an integer overflow to occur when processing BGP route updates. An attacker who is an authenticated BGP peer can send specific route updates to trigger this overflow, causing the system to crash and resulting in a denial of service. This attack can be executed over the network without requiring any user interaction, provided that the extended-nexthop-tunnel feature is enabled.
