An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-28511 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Arista Networks EOS. 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-2021-28511/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-28511/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-28511","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-28511/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-28511","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-7rjh-m68p-34pq"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Arista EOS","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass security ACL drop rules if a NAT ACL permit rule matches, allowing unauthorized traffic forwarding on Arista EOS devices.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Arista","cpe":[{"product":"eos","vendor":"arista"}],"cvss":{"score":5.8,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-284","name":"Improper Access Control"}],"description":"This advisory documents the impact of an internally found vulnerability in Arista EOS for security ACL bypass. The impact of this vulnerability is that the security ACL drop rule might be bypassed if a NAT ACL rule filter with permit action matches the packet flow. This could allow a host with an IP address in a range that matches the range allowed by a NAT ACL and a range denied by a Security ACL to be forwarded incorrectly as it should have been denied by the Security ACL. This can enable an ACL bypass.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Security feature bypass in EOS","id":"CVE-2021-28511","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"security_feature_bypass","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-28543"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in EOS","id":"CVE-2021-28510"},"products":["EOS"],"published":"2022-08-05","related":[{"cvss_score":6.9,"headline":"Arista Extensible Operating System Incomplete Comparison with Missing Factors","id":"CVE-2026-7473","kev_date_added":"2026-06-09","published":"2026-06-05"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-8236","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-11-19"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-10188","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-03-06"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-18017","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-01-03"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-14491","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-10-02"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Arista EOS","id":"CVE-2023-24509","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-04-13"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-5165","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-08-12"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-06-02","vendors":["Arista Networks"]},"summary":"Attackers can bypass security ACL drop rules if a NAT ACL permit rule matches, allowing unauthorized traffic forwarding on Arista EOS devices.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-28511/"}
