Executive ViewAI
NVIDIA NeMo Framework contains a critical remote code execution vulnerability (CVE-2025-33253) that could allow attackers to execute arbitrary code on systems through maliciously crafted files. Organizations using NeMo for AI/ML development face immediate risk of data breach, system compromise, and operational disruption until patches become available.
Implement strict file upload validation and sandboxing for NeMo model loading; restrict user access to NeMo systems using principle of least privilege; deploy network segmentation to isolate NeMo environments from production systems; disable or restrict remote model/checkpoint loading features; monitor for suspicious file access patterns and code execution; require security review of all external model sources before loading; consider temporarily restricting NeMo usage to offline environments with pre-validated models only.

SSVC AssessmentENISA
Priority Score
Attack Technique
Information disclosure occurs when an application unintentionally exposes sensitive data that aids attackers in reconnaissance or directly compromises security.
Remote Code Execution represents the critical moment when an attacker successfully runs arbitrary code on a target system without physical access.
Denial of Service attacks render applications or systems unavailable by overwhelming resources or triggering failure conditions.
