Reading on-switch agent trace logs requires privileged management access (PR:H, AV:L); impact is limited to disclosure of the VRRP peer secret (C:L), with no integrity or availability effect.

DescriptionCVE.org

On affected platforms running Arista EOS with VRRP enabled, the peer device VRRP authentication credentials are logged in cleartext on the switch, allowing an authenticated user with sufficient privileges to view agent trace logs (or a system receiving forwarded log output) to obtain the peer device VRRP authentication credentials without having access to the network segment on which VRRP is running.

AnalysisAI

Cleartext disclosure of peer VRRP authentication credentials in Arista EOS log output allows an authenticated, privileged user - or anyone able to read a system receiving forwarded agent trace logs - to recover the shared secret that authenticates VRRP advertisements, without needing any presence on the VRRP network segment itself. The defect applies to EOS platforms configured with authenticated VRRP; exploitation requires high-privilege access to the switch's agent trace logs or to a downstream log collector, and the resulting impact is confidentiality-only (CVSS 4.0 base 2.1; our independent assessment rates it CVSS 3.1 AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N, i.e. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Requires that VRRP is enabled on the affected Arista EOS switch (the credentials only exist when VRRP with authentication is configured), AND that the attacker holds sufficient privileges to view EOS agent trace logs on the switch OR has access to a system receiving forwarded/syslog output of those logs. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment This is a genuinely low-priority issue, and the signals agree rather than conflict. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation No vendor-released patch version is identified in the available data; treat Arista Security Advisory 0157 (https://www.arista.com/en/support/advisories-notices/security-advisory/24713-security-advisory-0157) as the authoritative source for the fixed EOS releases and upgrade all VRRP-authenticating switches as soon as a maintenance window permits. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
