CISA Adds Arista VeloCloud Orchestrator SQL Injection to Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has added CVE-2026-114625, a SQL injection vulnerability in Arista VeloCloud Orchestrator, to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) Catalog. The inclusion is based on evidence of active exploitation of the vulnerability.

SQL injection vulnerabilities are frequent attack vectors for malicious cyber actors and pose significant risks to the federal enterprise. CISA's Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 26-04: Prioritizing Security Updates Based on Risk establishes vulnerability management requirements for Federal Civilian Executive Branch (FCEB) agencies. The directive reinforces the importance of the KEV Catalog and requires federal agencies to prioritize rapid remediation of high-risk vulnerabilities listed in the KEV Catalog on publicly exposed assets that grant total control of the asset post-exploitation, while deferring action for lower-risk vulnerabilities.

BOD 26-04 further establishes basic expectations for when agencies must check whether threat actors compromised the system before the patch was applied. While the directive applies only to FCEB agencies, CISA encourages all organizations to adopt risk-based vulnerability management and prioritize remediation of KEV Catalog vulnerabilities.

The vulnerability affects Arista VeloCloud Orchestrator. CISA encourages organizations to apply vendor patches and adopt risk-based vulnerability management practices. Potential KEV additions must have a CVE ID, evidence of exploitation, and clear mitigation guidance. Organizations aware of an exploited vulnerability not currently listed in the KEV Catalog are encouraged to submit it for potential addition through CISA's KEV Nomination Form.
