Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.

The vulnerability exists due to use of incorrect operator in the Routing Engine firewall, when a firewall filter, which is applied to the lo0 or re:mgmt interface, references a prefix list, and that prefix list contains more than 10 entries. In such case the prefix list doesn't match and packets destined to the local device are not filtered.
