\n\nOn all QFX10000 platforms in an EVPN-VxLAN scenario, if an attacker sends IPv6 multicast traffic and these packets reach the non-IRB interface of a spine switch it floods the packet to other spines and all Ethernet Segment Identifier (ESI) leaf switches. This flooding causes the packet to be forwarded in a endless loop, which can lead to saturation of the involved links and in turn impact to legitimate traffic.


This issue affects Junos OS on QFX10000 Series:


This issue does not affect Junos version after 24.4 as the QFX10000 Series devices are not supported on newer versions anymore.
