Summary
On SRX Series and MX Series devices with a Service PIC with any ALG enabled, a crafted TCP/IP response packet processed through the device results in memory corruption leading to a flowd daemon crash. Sustained crafted response packets lead to repeated crashes of the flowd daemon which results in an extended Denial of Service condition.
