This advisory documents a security vulnerability in the open-source software Go, affecting Arista's EOS product. The vulnerability can lead to a panic when processing network traffic containing an invalid DSA public key. In EOS, the exposure is limited to the state streaming components - TerminAttr and OpenConfig, which are not enabled by default. If exploited, it can result in a Denial-of-Service (DoS) affecting these components.
With Rapid7 live dashboards, I have a clear view of all the assets on my network, which ones can be exploited, and what I need to do in order to reduce the risk in my environment in real-time. No other tool gives us that kind of value and insight.
