Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.88%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
When the device is configured to perform account lockout with a defined period of time, any unauthenticated user attempting to log in as root with an incorrect password can trigger a lockout of the root account. When an SRX Series device is in cluster mode, and a cluster sync or failover operation occurs, then there will be errors associated with synch or failover while the root account is locked out.
