An unauthenticated attacker on an adjacent network segment can send crafted RIPv2 packets to a RIP-enabled interface on the device to trigger the Rip agent crash without providing valid credentials. Repeated exploitation reliably interrupts routing service on the affected device, which may also disrupt routing for other devices that depend on it. In a worst-case scenario, the vulnerability may allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the affected device.

Ein Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen in Arista EOS ausnutzen, um Sicherheitsmaßnahmen zu umgehen, Daten offenzulegen oder zu manipulieren, einen Denial of Service zu verursachen und in einem Fall möglicherweise Code ausführen.
