The version of Junos OS installed on the remote host is affected by multiple local privilege escalation vulnerabilities as referenced in the JSA11114 advisory. Specifically:

  • A sensitive information disclosure vulnerability in delta-export configuration utility (dexp) of Juniper Networks Junos OS may allow a locally authenticated shell user the ability to create and read database files generated by the dexp utility, including password hashes of local users. Since dexp is shipped with setuid permissions enabled and is owned by the root user, this vulnerability may allow a local privileged user the ability to run dexp with root privileges and access sensitive information in the dexp database.
    (CVE-2021-0204)
  • A local privilege escalation vulnerability in telnetd.real of Juniper Networks Junos OS may allow a locally authenticated shell user to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary commands as root. telnetd.real is shipped with setuid permissions enabled and is owned by the root user, allowing local users to run telnetd.real with root privileges. (CVE-2021-0223)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
