Actually, Juniper does disclose code bugs. Though not always to the public
at first, importantly to Juniper customers. Juniper had advised all of
their customers last August of this bug, however Level3 chose to continue
running it on their peer routers. Thus if Level3 and its clue(full)
management might have listened to their operators & network engineers....

cheers

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.

The reason it's called "gambling" is that sometimes, you lose.
