There have been some reports from various now-scrambling ISPs and NSPs
about their Juniper JunOS devices rebooting.

Apparently, it may be related to the (either accidental or
intentional) exploitation of this bug: http://pastebin.com/HBWiH92j

>From the reports of those networks having problems, it's interesting
to hear who's running Juniper and MXes.

<tangential sidenote>
It's too bad that Junipers bugs aren't listed publicly. For clueful
network operations, having this information available to them could
have enabled them to properly weigh the risk of evaluating and
certifying versions of their operating systems.

Cheers,
