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 with low privileges to achieve code execution, data tampering, and information disclosure on the host system. The CVSS:3.1 vector (AV:L/PR:L) confirms this is a local-access vulnerability targeting NVIDIA's distributed large-model training infrastructure, where a compromised or malicious low-privileged user on the same host could supply a crafted serialized payload to the Bridge component. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Local access to the host running NVIDIA Megatron Bridge is required, with at minimum a low-privileged operating system account (PR:L per CVSS). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 7.8 High score is credible given the full-triad high impact (C:H/I:H/A:H), but the local attack vector (AV:L) and low-privilege prerequisite (PR:L) substantially constrain real-world risk compared to network-exploitable deserialization bugs. … 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 The primary remediation is to apply the patch or updated version specified in the NVIDIA Product Security advisory at https://github.com/NVIDIA/product-security/tree/main/2026/5868 - an exact fix version is not confirmed from the currently available input data (upstream fix available per vendor advisory; patched version not independently verified). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, identify all systems running NVIDIA Megatron Bridge and catalog local user accounts and their assigned privilege levels. …
