DescriptionCVE.org

NVIDIA Megatron Bridge contains a vulnerability where an attacker could cause a deserialization of untrusted data. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to code execution, data tampering, and information disclosure.

AnalysisAI

Deserialization of untrusted data in NVIDIA Megatron Bridge allows a local attacker holding standard user privileges to achieve arbitrary code execution, data tampering, and information disclosure on the affected host. The CVSS 3.1 score of 7.8 (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H) confirms the exploitation path is local and low-privilege - no network exposure or administrator rights are required, making insider threats, shared-access HPC environments, and compromised user accounts the primary risk vectors. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires a local user account with at least low-privilege access (PR:L per CVSS) on the system where NVIDIA Megatron Bridge is running - no network-based attack path is indicated by the AV:L vector. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS base score of 7.8 accurately reflects high local impact across all three CIA pillars, but the local attack vector (AV:L) substantially narrows the exploitable population relative to network-accessible deserialization flaws such as Log4Shell. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Consult the NVIDIA product security advisory at https://github.com/NVIDIA/product-security/tree/main/2026/5868 for the official patch and exact fixed version, as specific version numbers were not available in the sourced intelligence. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, identify and inventory all systems running NVIDIA Megatron Bridge, determine deployment context (shared HPC clusters, multi-tenant research environments, air-gapped systems), and assess number of users with access. …
