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 이 이메일 주소가 스팸봇으로부터 보호됩니다. 확인하려면 자바스크립트 활성화가 필요합니다.. 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 0217
November 10, 2026
On affected platforms running Arista EOS with 802.1X with Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) device profiling enabled, a network-adjacent attacker can send a crafted DHCP packet to force the device to record a spoofed device profile. This may potentially allow the authenticated supplicant to acquire unauthorized access to a network segment with elevated privileges.
Security Advisory 0216
November 10, 2026
On affected platforms running Arista EOS with IEEE 802.1X authentication and MACsec using dynamically derived keys, sensitive authentication information may be recorded in diagnostic data during a Smart Switch Upgrade (SSU). An attacker with administrative access on the device who obtains the affected diagnostic data could recover sensitive authentication information. This could potentially compromise the confidentiality and integrity of traffic protected by MACsec on the affected link.
Security Advisory 0215
November 10, 2026
On affected EOS platforms where 802.1x is configured in multi-host authenticated mode and the device is configured with Policy Based Routing (PBR), traffic from unauthenticated hosts may be forwarded to the destination configured in the PBR policies. This could potentially allow unauthenticated hosts access to networks. Additionally Layer 2 and Layer 3 control packets from unauthenticated hosts may get copied to the CPU.
Security Advisory 0214
November 10, 2026
All of the CVEs covered in this advisory apply to affected platforms running Arista EOS with the Virtual Private LAN Service using BGP Signaling (VPLS-BGP) enabled on the Provider Edge (PE) routers. These issues primarily affect customers using VPLS-BGP to connect disparate customer L2 networks.
Security Advisory 0213
November 10, 2026
On affected platforms running Arista EOS in multi-agent routing model with BGP Segment Routing Traffic Engineering (SR-TE) address family configured, a BGP peer can send crafted BGP packets to cause the BGP process to restart, disrupting all BGP sessions on the device.
Security Advisory 0212
November 10, 2026
This vulnerability affects customers using Arista Pathfinder for WAN path selection with Border Gateway Protocol-Link State (BGP-LS) configured for Dynamic Path Selection (DPS). On affected platforms running Arista EOS with BGP-LS configured for DPS, an attacker who has established an authenticated BGP-LS session with the device can send a specially crafted BGP packet to cause incorrect WAN path selection and disrupt traffic forwarding.
Security Advisory 0211
November 10, 2026
On affected Arista EOS platforms running Border Gateway Protocol with Link State ( BGP-LS) and configured with the Dynamic Path Selection (DPS) consumer role, an attacker who has established an authenticated BGP-LS session with the device can send a crafted message to cause the BGP agent to restart unexpectedly. An Arista Pathfinder deployment is not required.
Security Advisory 0210
November 10, 2026
On affected EOS-based platforms, an attacker who controls a Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) peer can send a crafted BGP message over an established session with the Dynamic Path Selection (DPS) address family negotiated. This can cause the BGP process to terminate unexpectedly, resetting all BGP sessions and disrupting routing services until the process restarts.
Security Advisory 0209
November 10, 2026
On affected platforms running Arista EOS with Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) changing the BGP listen port from its default value disables default protective Access Control List (ACL) rules against unexpected BGP peering attempts.
Security Advisory 0208
November 10, 2026
On affected platforms running Arista EOS with BGP configured, a specially crafted packet can cause the BGP agent to crash. Successful exploitation causes the BGP agent process to terminate, resulting in the loss of all BGP sessions on the affected device and possible disruption to network routing until the process recovers. Due to the nature of the vulnerability, it may also be possible for a sophisticated attacker to achieve arbitrary code execution, which could compromise the confidentiality and integrity of the affected system.
