Description
If unsecured functions (lacking FIPS-validated cryptographic mechanisms) are used for management sessions, the contents of those sessions are susceptible to manipulation, potentially allowing alteration and hijacking. J-Web (configured using the system services web-management option) does not meet the DoD requirement for management tools. It also does not work with all Juniper SRX hardware. By default, the web interface is disabled; however, it is easily enabled.
