Lifecycle Timeline
1DescriptionCVE.org
NVIDIA Triton Inference Server contains a vulnerability where an attacker could cause an integer overflow. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to denial of service.
AnalysisAI
Denial of service in NVIDIA Triton Inference Server can be triggered remotely by unauthenticated attackers via an integer overflow condition (CWE-190). The CVSS 7.5 score reflects high availability impact with no confidentiality or integrity loss, and no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis. Defenders running Triton in network-exposed inference deployments should prioritize patching since exploitation requires no privileges, no user interaction, and low attack complexity.
Technical ContextAI
NVIDIA Triton Inference Server is an open-source serving platform used to deploy and scale AI/ML models (TensorRT, PyTorch, ONNX, TensorFlow, Python backends) across GPU and CPU infrastructure, typically exposed via HTTP/REST and gRPC inference endpoints. The root cause is CWE-190 (Integer Overflow or Wraparound), where arithmetic on attacker-influenced integer values exceeds the bounds of the target data type, producing a wrapped value that downstream code treats as valid - commonly leading to undersized allocations, malformed length checks, or out-of-bounds memory operations. In this instance the overflow manifests as a denial of service rather than memory corruption with code execution, suggesting the wrapped value drives Triton into an abort, crash, or resource-exhaustion path rather than a controllable write primitive. The affected CPE is cpe:2.3:a:nvidia:triton_inference_server with the version field wildcarded, indicating NVD has not yet narrowed down the precise vulnerable range.
RemediationAI
Patch available per vendor advisory - consult the NVIDIA security bulletin at https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5828 for the exact fixed Triton Inference Server version and upgrade accordingly; exact fix version was not provided in the input data and should not be inferred. Until patched, restrict network exposure of the Triton HTTP and gRPC inference endpoints (default ports 8000, 8001, 8002) to trusted clients only via firewall rules, service mesh policies, or Kubernetes NetworkPolicies, accepting that this breaks any cross-tenant or external inference consumers. Place an authenticating reverse proxy or API gateway in front of Triton to drop anomalous or oversized inference requests, and monitor the server for unexpected restarts that may indicate exploitation attempts; rate-limit inbound inference requests to slow brute-force crash attempts, with the trade-off of throttling legitimate high-volume workloads.
