CVE-2026-102167
CRITICAL 9On affected Arista Wi-Fi access points, a memory corruption vulnerability exists in access point's wired uplink network endpoints. An unauthenticated attacker can crash the sensor service or potentially achieve remote code execution. Exploitation requires the attacker to be on the same network segment as the access point's wired uplink.
Severe if exploited (CVSS 9), but no known exploitation and low modeled probability. Patch on a normal cadence.
