Last modified

CVE-2026-73446 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.4/10 on the CVSS scale. On affected platforms running Arista EOS with IS-IS configured on a broadcast interface, an unauthenticated attacker can send a crafted IS-IS Hello Protocol Data Unit (PDU) that causes the device to tear down an established IS-IS adjacency. This may result in traffic disruption and loss of IP reachability for prefixes advertised through that adjacency.. EPSS estimates a 0.25% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
