Impact

CVSS v3.1 base score of 4.2 (Low-Medium) with vector AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:L reflects constrained exploitation: network-accessible but high attack complexity, limited to confidentiality (no impact), low integrity and availability impact. The PR:L (login required) factor is significant-only authenticated BGP peers can trigger the flaw, substantially reducing threat surface compared to unauthenticated RCE scenarios. The CVSS RL:O (Official Fix Available) notation confirms vendor patch availability. No CVSS exploitation maturity (E:X) or EPSS probability data provided limits quantitative risk comparison, but the confluence of authentication requirement, high complexity, and limited impact scope suggests this is a lower-priority vulnerability for most operators, though critical in targeted BGP hijacking or route manipulation scenarios where attacker control of a BGP session is established. Organizations running public-facing BGP infrastructure or accepting routes from untrusted peers should prioritize patching; internal deployments with strict BGP peer whitelisting face lower risk.
Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker with established BGP session credentials (or ability to compromise a BGP peer relationship) sends specially crafted EVPN Type-2 route advertisements to an FRR instance running a vulnerable version. Due to improper access control in process_type2_route, the attacker bypasses authorization checks, allowing manipulation of route advertisements that could disrupt network connectivity or redirect traffic. While high attack complexity and authentication requirements limit casual exploitation, this scenario is practical for advanced persistent threats targeting BGP infrastructure or for internal malicious actors with BGP peer access.
Monitor Track and reassess. Why: LOW severity (CVSS 0.1-3.9).

AnalysisAIv1 – Mar 30, 2026

Remote improper access control in FRRouting FRR up to version 10.5.1 allows authenticated remote attackers to bypass authorization checks in the EVPN Type-2 Route Handler (process_type2_route function), potentially leading to integrity and availability impacts. The vulnerability requires high attack complexity and authenticated access (PR:L), limiting immediate exploitation risk. An upstream fix (commit 7676cad65114aa23adde583d91d9d29e2debd045) is available; no public exploit code or active CISA KEV designation identified at time of analysis.

RemediationAI

Upstream fix available via commit 7676cad65114aa23adde583d91d9d29e2debd045 in FRRouting's GitHub repository. Users should update FRR to the next stable release after 10.5.1 that incorporates this commit (exact version number to be confirmed by consulting FRR release notes at https://github.com/FRRouting/frr/releases). For immediate protection pending a stable release, apply the commit directly via cherry-pick or await the next tagged release. Organizations can reduce exposure by implementing strict BGP peer authentication, limiting BGP session acceptance to trusted peers only, and monitoring BGP route advertisements for anomalies. No vendor-provided workaround independent of patching is documented.

Technical ContextAI · show details

FRRouting (FRR) is a free and open-source Internet routing protocol daemon suite implementing BGP, OSPF, RIP, ISIS, and other protocols on Unix-like platforms. The vulnerability exists in the EVPN (Ethernet VPN) Type-2 Route Handler within bgpd/bgp_evpn.c, specifically in the process_type2_route function. CWE-284 (Improper Access Control - Permissions, Privileges, and Other Access Controls) indicates the root cause is a failure to properly restrict access to or modification of resources. The affected component processes BGP EVPN Type-2 routes, which are used in MPLS-based Ethernet VPNs for MAC/IP advertisement. The improper access control likely allows an authenticated BGP peer to manipulate route processing logic beyond intended authorization boundaries.
