Description

VeloCloud Orchestrator (VCO) on-prem has a security issue where this issue may allow a remote attacker to access privileged internal functionality and impact the VCO host. Successful exploitation may compromise the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the orchestrator and data managed by the orchestrator. On an affected system, any authenticated user can gain operator privileges and masquerade as a local "superuser operator" user. This includes access to functionality that is intended for internal use only and which is not intended to be remotely accessible. Hosted, including Dedicated, versions of VCO were impacted and have already been patched.

Summary

CVE-2026-114625 is a critical SQL injection flaw (CVSS 9.9) in Arista VeloCloud Orchestrator (VCO) on-prem that lets any authenticated user escalate to operator privileges and impersonate a local superuser operator, reaching internal-only functionality and potentially compromising the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the orchestrator and its managed data. On-prem VCO deployments are affected; hosted and Dedicated versions were impacted but are already patched. The flaw is listed in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog with active exploitation, so treat it as urgent. Apply the vendor fixes (5.2.3.18, 6.1.3.10, 6.4.2.12) and follow CISA BOD 26-04 guidance, including evaluating internet exposure and forensics triage requirements.
