It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-28497 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Arista Metamako Operating System. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-28497/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-28497/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-28497","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-28497/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-28497","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-v7vx-g8wp-cjcv"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Arista Metamako OS","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Unprivileged users can access the bash shell on Arista Metamako OS devices, leading to potential privilege escalation and code execution.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Arista","cpe":[{"product":"metamako_operating_system","vendor":"arista"}],"cvss":{"score":4.4,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"In Arista's MOS (Metamako Operating System) software which is supported on the 7130 product line, under certain conditions, the bash shell might be accessible to unprivileged users in situations where they should not have access.
