Description

On affected platforms running Arista EOS with Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) configured, SNMPv3 local or remote user credentials may be exposed as a one-way hashed, localized key value within the device's running and sanitized configurations.

This issue was discovered internally by Arista, and the company is not aware of any malicious exploitation of this vulnerability in customer networks.
