CVE-2026-93952Arista VeloCloud Orchestrator — input validation flaw to host takeover

Arista's on-premises VeloCloud Orchestrator (VCO) does not properly validate input, so a remote attacker can reach privileged internal functions and take over the orchestrator host along with the data it manages.

YOUR NEXT MOVE

Patch on-prem VeloCloud Orchestrator per Arista's advisory now; hosted tenants are already fixed. Review orchestrator logs for unexpected privileged calls.
