CVE-2024-30410:An Incorrect Behavior Order in the routing engine (RE) of Juniper Networks Junos OS on EX4300 Series allows traffic intended to the device to reach the RE instead of being discarded when the discard term is set in loopback (lo0) interface.

This issue affects versions of Junos OS:
All versions before 20.4R3-S10
21.2 to prior to 21.2R3-S7
21.4 to prior to 21.4R3-S6
