CVE-2026-120977

On affected platforms running Arista EOS with 802.1X with Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) device profiling enabled, a network-adjacent attacker can send a crafted DHCP packet to force the device to record a spoofed device profile. This may potentially allow the authenticated supplicant to acquire unauthorized access to a network segment with elevated privileges.
