Description
A Missing Authentication for Critical Function vulnerability in Juniper Networks Junos OS on SRX Series allows an unauthenticated, network-based attacker to cause limited impact to the file system integrity.
With a specific request to user.php that doesn't require authentication an attacker is able to upload arbitrary files via J-Web, leading to a loss of
integrity
for a certain
part of the file system, which may allow chaining to other vulnerabilities.

* 21.1 versions 21.1R1 and later;
* 21.2 versions prior to 21.2R3-S6;
