3.7 LOW

Network-reachable gRPC server, no auth required per PR:N, but precise boundary-value crafting needed (AC:H); impact is integrity-only data truncation with no confidentiality or availability consequence.

DescriptionCVE.org

There is an incorrect conversion between numeric types vulnerability in NI grpc-device due to missing range checks in CodeGen.  This may silently discard high bits if a size value exceeded the target type's range. This affects NI grpc-device 2.17.0 and prior versions.

AnalysisAI

Silent integer truncation in NI grpc-device 2.17.0 and earlier allows unauthenticated network-accessible attackers to corrupt size values processed by the CodeGen component, potentially causing integrity violations in instrument control operations. The root cause is CWE-681 - missing range checks during numeric type conversion in CodeGen - meaning oversized size fields silently lose their high-order bits rather than being rejected or flagged. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The NI grpc-device server must be network-reachable from the attacker's position, consistent with AV:N in the CVSS 4.0 vector. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 score of 6.3 with vector AV:N/AC:H/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N reflects a moderate-risk, remotely exploitable flaw constrained by high attack complexity. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker with network access to an exposed gRPC-device server constructs a gRPC message containing a size or length field set to a value exceeding the maximum of the target integer type used internally by CodeGen (for example, a value above 2^31-1 when the target is a signed 32-bit integer). The CodeGen layer converts this value without a bounds check, silently discards the high-order bits, and produces an incorrect, smaller size value that the server uses to process subsequent instrument commands or data frames. …
Remediation The primary remediation is to update NI grpc-device beyond version 2.17.0 per the NI security advisory at https://www.ni.com/en/support/security/available-critical-and-security-updates-for-ni-software/2026/multiple-vulnerabilities-in-ni-grpc-device-server.html. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
