CVE-2024-39532 — Juniper Junos security vulnerability

Medium CVSS 6.3

An Insertion of Sensitive Information into Log File vulnerability in Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved allows a local, authenticated attacker with high privileges to access sensitive information. When another user performs a specific operation, sensitive information is stored as plain text in a specific log file, so that a high-privileged attacker has access to this information. This issue affects: Junos OS: * All versions before 21.2R3-S9; * 21.4 versions before 21.4R3-S9; * 22.2 versions before 22.2R2-S1, 22.2R3; * 22.3 versions before 22.3R1-S1, 22.3R2; Junos OS Evolved: * All versions before before 22.1R3-EVO; * 22.2-EVO versions before 22.2R2-S1-EVO, 22.2R3-EVO; * 22.3-EVO versions before 22.3R1-S1-EVO, 22.3R2-EVO.

Matched remediation archetype

Information disclosure and sensitive data exposure

This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.

Check exposure

  • Trace sensitive data through responses, errors, logs, metrics, traces, caches, exports, files, backups, and client bundles.
  • Identify affected subjects, tenants, retention windows, access controls, and downstream copies without opening unnecessary sensitive records.
  • Review metadata, timing, status, length, and existence signals as well as direct content disclosure.

Remediate safely

  • Minimize collection and output, apply field-level authorization and redaction at a centralized boundary, and return generic external errors.
  • Remove secrets and sensitive data from logs, artifacts, URLs, caches, and client-side bundles; rotate credentials that may have been exposed.
  • Update the affected component and add synthetic-data tests for response, error, observability, and export paths.
