On affected Arista EOS platforms with Routing Information Protocol version 2 (RIPv2) configured, under certain conditions, RIPv2 might be silently enabled on management interfaces even when the RIP agent intends to disable it. It allows an unauthenticated attacker with access to the adjacent network to send crafted RIPv2 route advertisements to the device's management IP address. The device could accept and install those routes without authentication.
Successful exploitation could allow the attacker to redirect traffic flows to an attacker-controlled destination, install more-specific routes that blackhole legitimate traffic, or otherwise disrupt network reachability for systems whose traffic passes through the affected device.
0.3% estimated probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days; 22nd percentile. Scored 2026-11-13. A forecast for this CVE across the internet, not for your own systems.
CISA's assessment (SSVC)
Exploitation: none · Automatable: yes · Technical impact: total, assessed 2026-11-13. From CISA's Vulnrichment in the CVE List: whether it is exploited, whether exploiting it can be automated, and how much control it gives.
Show the promptExplain CVE-2026-121367 for an engineer deciding whether to act. Use https://cve.bz/api/public/cves/CVE-2026-121367?via=ask-ai-copy and https://cve.bz/cve/CVE-2026-121367?via=ask-ai-copy as the source of truth: what is affected and which versions fix it, whether it is in CISA KEV, public exploits, and its EPSS (an internet-wide 30-day estimate of exploitation activity, not a forecast for my systems). If they give no fixed versions, use the CVE record https://cveawg.mitre.org/api/cve/CVE-2026-121367 or the vendor advisory, not third-party mirrors. Tell me how to check whether I am affected and how to verify a fix. Cite the sources and say where they are uncertain.
