Description

An Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') vulnerability in ipfd of Juniper Networks Junos OS on SRX Series allows an unauthenticated network-based attacker to execute code with root privileges via a configured Security Intelligence feed connection.

• CWE-89Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data.
