Security Advisories

 

Arista Networks is committed to maintaining the highest standards of security across our product portfolio. Leveraging extensive testing and monitoring of vulnerabilities to isolate and neutralize threats early, Arista's Product Security Incident Response Team (PSIRT) provides global coverage for public reporting of possible security vulnerabilities across the product portfolio.

The PSIRT team monitors industry-wide vulnerability reporting as well as providing a single point of contact for customers and interested third parties to investigate and identify potential threats. The PSIRT team also works to communicate these issues back to the user community in a timely manner.

Arista's approach to vulnerability management and links to best practice guidelines can be found here.

Report security vulnerabilities found in Arista products to the PSIRT team via このメールアドレスはスパムボットから保護されています。閲覧するにはJavaScriptを有効にする必要があります。. It is recommended to use Arista's PGP key for secure and private communication directly with the PSIRT team.

Arista PSIRT is happy to work with researchers on discovered vulnerabilities in Arista products, the assignment of CVEs, and timelines for responsible disclosure. If a researcher discovers a new vulnerability they will be acknowledged in the advisory related to the vulnerability. Arista PSIRT is interested in receiving reports on issues affecting features in both Arista code as well as Open Source Software used in Arista products. Security issues found in Open Source Software which do not affect Arista products are out of the scope of Arista and should be referred to the appropriate CNA found here.

 

PSIRT Advisories

The following advisories and referenced materials are provided on an "as is" basis for use at your own risk. Arista Networks reserves the right to change or update the advisories without notice at any time.

Security Advisory 0098

This Advisory describes an issue that impacts Arista Wireless Access Points. Any entity with the ability to authenticate via SSH to an affected AP as the “config” user is able to cause a privilege escalation via spawning a bash shell. The SSH CLI session does not require high permissions to exploit this vulnerability, but the config password is required to establish the session. The spawned shell is able to obtain root privileges.

Security Advisory 0097

Arista Networks is providing this security update in response to the following publicly disclosed security vulnerabilities related to protocol level issues with the 802.11 standard.

Security Advisory 0096

CVE-2023-5502: On affected platforms running Arista EOS with 802.1x authentication configured on the access/trunk ports, and routing enabled on the access VLAN of the ports, a malicious supplicant may be able to bypass the requirement to perform 802.1x authentication.

Security Advisory 0095

CVE-2024-3094: Malicious code was discovered in the upstream tarballs of xz, starting with version 5.6.0. Through a series of complex obfuscations, the liblzma build process extracts a prebuilt object file from a disguised test file existing in the source code, which is then used to modify specific functions in the liblzma code. This results in a modified liblzma library that can be used by any software linked against this library, intercepting and modifying the data interaction with this library.

Security Advisory 0094

Arista Networks is providing this security update in response to the following publicly disclosed security vulnerabilities related to HTTP/2 CONTINUATION frames. This set of vulnerabilities is the result of some HTTP/2 implementations that do not properly limit or sanitize the amount of CONTINUATION frames sent in a single stream. An attacker that can send packets to a target server can send a stream of CONTINUATION frames, which can result in an out-of-memory crash, enabling an attacker to launch a denial of service (DoS) attack against a target service using a vulnerable implementation.

Security Advisory 0093

Multiple SQL Injection vulnerabilities exist in the reporting application of the Arista Edge Threat Management - Arista NG Firewall (NGFW). A user with advanced report application access rights can exploit the SQL injection, allowing them to execute commands on the underlying operating system with elevated privileges.

The CVE-ID tracking this issue: CVE-2024-27889

Security Advisory 0092

On affected platforms running CloudVision Portal Virtual Appliances on AWS/GCP, a public key is present in the /root/.ssh/authorized_keys file. This key, however, cannot be used unless the accompanying private key is available. While this key is believed to have been deleted, this advisory is being released out of an abundance of caution.

This vulnerability is being tracked by BUG 880654

Security Advisory 0091

On affected 7130 Series FPGA platforms running MOS and recent versions of the MultiAccess FPGA, application of ACL’s may result in incorrect operation of the configured ACL for a port resulting in some packets that should be denied being permitted and some packets that should be permitted being denied.

The CVE-ID tracking this issue: CVE-2023-6068

Security Advisory 0090

On affected platforms running Arista MOS, the configuration of a BGP password will cause the password to be logged in clear text that can be revealed in local logs or remote logging servers by authenticated users, as well as appear in clear text in the device’s running config. This could result in unauthorized route announcements from malicious peers or cause traffic loss.

The CVE-ID tracking this issue: CVE-2023-24547

Security Advisory 0089

On affected platforms running Arista EOS with VXLAN configured, malformed or truncated packets received over a VXLAN tunnel and forwarded in hardware can cause egress ports to be unable to forward packets. The device will continue to be susceptible to the issue until remediation is in place.
