CVE-2026-17191: CWE-89 Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') in Arista Networks VeloCloud Orchestrator On-Prem
An input validation vulnerability exists in an API component of the orchestrator. An authenticated user can exploit this flaw to manipulate backend queries, which may result in unauthorized access to data beyond their intended privileges and cause the underlying system to initiate unintended outbound network connections. This issue was discovered internally by Arista and the company is not aware of any malicious uses of this issue in customer networks.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability (CWE-89) in Arista Networks VeloCloud Orchestrator On-Prem allows an authenticated user to perform SQL injection via insufficient input validation in an API component. Exploitation can lead to unauthorized data access and unintended outbound network connections, indicating both confidentiality and availability impacts. The CVSS 3.1 score is 9.1 (critical), reflecting network attack vector, low attack complexity, required privileges, no user interaction, and high confidentiality impact with some integrity and availability impact. No patch or official remediation has been disclosed yet.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation can result in unauthorized access to sensitive data beyond the attacker's privileges and may cause the system to make unintended outbound network connections, potentially leading to data leakage and disruption of service. The vulnerability affects confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the system.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Since no official fix or workaround is currently published, monitor Arista Networks' advisories for updates. Limit authenticated user privileges to the minimum necessary to reduce risk until a patch is available.
