Authenticated Redis Session Leads to Root Access in CVX Cluster

Publication date: 2026-06-05

Last updated on: 2026-06-05

Assigner: Arista Networks, Inc.

Description
An authenticated Redis session could be used to obtain full root access to all servers in the CVX cluster. Note that this would require an attacker to have both network access to the Redis service on a CVX server and the Redis password. Please note that all Redis communication, including authentication, occurs over plaintext in the present day. TLS support is tracked under RFE1294850.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability involves an authenticated Redis session that could be exploited to gain full root access to all servers within the CVX cluster. To exploit this, an attacker must have network access to the Redis service on a CVX server and know the Redis password. Additionally, all Redis communication, including authentication, currently occurs over plaintext, which increases the risk of interception.

Impact Analysis

If exploited, this vulnerability could allow an attacker to gain full root access to all servers in the CVX cluster. This means the attacker could take complete control over the affected servers, potentially leading to data theft, data loss, service disruption, or further compromise of the network.
