{"id":"CVE-2018-0031","url":"https://www.cyber-defence.io/tools/cve/CVE-2018-0031","generatedAt":"2026-10-28T19:05:01.477Z","title":"Receipt of specially crafted UDP/IP packets over MPLS may be able to bypass a stateless firewall filter.","description":"Receipt of specially crafted UDP/IP packets over MPLS may be able to bypass a stateless firewall filter. The crafted UDP packets must be encapsulated and meet a very specific packet format to be classified in a way that bypasses IP firewall filter rules. The packets themselves do not cause a service interruption (e.g. RPD crash), but receipt of a high rate of UDP packets may be able to contribute to a denial of service attack. This issue only affects processing of transit UDP/IP packets over MPLS, received on an interface with MPLS enabled. TCP packet processing and non-MPLS encapsulated UDP packet processing are unaffected by this issue.
