An Improper Physical Access Control vulnerability in the console port control of Juniper Networks Junos OS Evolved allows an attacker with physical access to the device to get access to a user account. When the console cable is disconnected, the logged in user is not logged out. This allows a malicious attacker with physical access to the console to resume a previous session and possibly gain administrative privileges. This issue affects Junos OS Evolved: * from 23.2R2-EVO before 23.2R2-S1-EVO,  * from 23.4R1-EVO before 23.4R2-EVO.
