CVE-2018-0017
A vulnerability in the Network Address Translation - Protocol Translation (NAT-PT) feature of Junos OS on SRX series devices may allow a certain valid IPv6 packet to crash the flowd daemon.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.86%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
