Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved: When telemetry collectors are frequently subscribing and unsubscribing to sensors chassisd or rpd will crash

A Use After Free vulnerability in the chassis daemon (chassisd) of Juniper Networks Junos OS and Junos OS Evolved allows a network-based attacker authenticated with low privileges to cause a Denial-of-Service (DoS).

When telemetry collectors are frequently subscribing and unsubscribing to sensors continuously over a long period of time, telemetry-capable processes like chassisd, rpd or mib2d will crash and restart, which - depending on the process - can cause a complete outage until the system has recovered.

This issue affects:

 Junos OS: 

* all versions before 22.4R3-S8,
* 23.2 versions before 23.2R2-S5,
* 23.4 versions before 23.4R2;

Junos OS Evolved:

* all versions before 22.4R3-S8-EVO,
* 23.2 versions before 23.2R2-S5-EVO,
* 23.4 versions before 23.4R2-EVO.
