CVE-2019-0052: SRX Series: srxpfe process crash while JSF/UTM module parses specific HTTP packets

The srxpfe process may crash on SRX Series services gateways when the UTM module processes a specific fragmented HTTP packet. The packet is misinterpreted as a regular TCP packet which causes the processor to crash. This issue affects all SRX Series platforms that support URL-Filtering and have web-filtering enabled. Affected releases are Juniper Networks Junos OS: 12.3X48 versions prior to 12.3X48-D85 on SRX Series; 15.1X49 versions prior to 15.1X49-D181, 15.1X49-D190 on SRX Series; 17.3 versions on SRX Series; 17.4 versions prior to 17.4R1-S8, 17.4R2-S5, 17.4R3 on SRX Series; 18.1 versions prior to 18.1R3-S6 on SRX Series; 18.2 versions prior to 18.2R2-S1, 18.2R3 on SRX Series; 18.3 versions prior to 18.3R1-S2, 18.3R2 on SRX Series; 18.4 versions prior to 18.4R1-S1, 18.4R2 on SRX Series.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This vulnerability can crash the packet forwarding process on Juniper SRX firewalls when web-filtering handles a malformed fragmented HTTP packet. The main business impact is service disruption, not data theft or tampering, based on the provided CVSS details. Exposure is most likely on Juniper SRX Series gateways running affected Junos OS versions with web-filtering enabled. Environments using SRX as an internet edge, branch firewall, or traffic inspection point should prioritize inventory and version checks. High priority for organizations relying on affected SRX firewalls for perimeter or branch connectivity. The issue can interrupt network service without authentication, but the provided evidence indicates availability impact only, not compromise of confidentiality or integrity. Mitigation focus: Upgrade affected SRX devices to Juniper fixed Junos OS releases listed in JSA10946.; Prioritize systems with web-filtering enabled and exposed to untrusted HTTP traffic.; Review Juniper advisory JSA10946 for platform-specific remediation guidance..
