In short
A flaw in the routing protocol daemon of Junos OS allows a configured BGP EVPN peer to send a malformed network layer reachability information message. This input is not properly validated, causing the daemon to crash and resulting in a denial of service. The attacker requires network access to the device and must already be established as a configured BGP EVPN peer to exploit this vulnerability.
