In order to be vulnerable to CVE-2026-73458, the following condition must be met:

BFD sessions configured with authentication are affected by this issue. All supported authentication modes are impacted. The full list of authentication modes is below:
 

To determine whether your sessions are affected, run the following show command. If the authentication mode is set to anything other than None, your configuration is impacted. In the example below, the authentication mode is set to Password, indicating an affected configuration.

If BFD is not configured, there is no exposure to this issue. The below show command command will return empty output:

switch>show running-config section bfd\nswitch>\n
 

If BFD is configured but not operational, there is no exposure to this issue. The below show command will return empty output:

switch>show bfd peers detail\nswitch>\n
 

If BFD is configured, and operational but not in authentication mode, there is no exposure to this issue and the output of below show command will look something like:
