Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires a user to run the 'nnabla_cli encode_param' command on an attacker-controlled text-format parameter file whose contents reach the eval() call in load_param_in_txt (encode_decode_param.py). Limiting factors: it depends on that user interaction (the operator must choose to process the malicious file), affects only Sony Neural Network Libraries (nnabla) versions up to and including 1.39.0, and the affected product is no longer supported by the maintainer so no vendor fix is available. No authentication is indicated in the CVSS vector (PR:N), but the vector's AV:N 'remote' framing is undercut by the requirement to locally process the supplied file.

Impact

This is a low-priority issue by nearly every signal, with one caveat worth noting. The vendor CVSS 4.0 score is 2.1 (Low), driven by passive user interaction (UI:P) and Low impact ratings (VC:L/VI:L/VA:L), and the vuln.today decision label is 'monitor'. No CISA KEV listing is present (no active exploitation claimed) and no EPSS score is supplied, so widespread automated exploitation is not indicated. Against that, a public PoC reference is listed (GitHub) and the CVSS exploit-maturity metric is E:P (Proof-of-Concept), and the referenced PoC is titled as eval()-based 'Arbitrary Command Execution' - which conflicts with the vendor's Low VC/VI/VA impact ratings: an eval() code-injection path normally yields full arbitrary code execution (High impact), suggesting the vendor score understates technical impact. The vector also lists AV:N, but the actual trigger requires a user to process an attacker-supplied parameter file through the nnabla_cli encode_param command, which is closer to local/user-interaction exploitation than true remote network exploitation - verify the delivery assumption. Net: the real-world risk is constrained by user interaction, a niche end-of-life product, and no evidence of in-the-wild use, but the impact ceiling is higher than the 2.1 score implies.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker crafts a malicious text-format parameter file embedding a Python expression in a field that load_param_in_txt passes to eval(), then induces a victim to run 'nnabla_cli encode_param' on that file. When the file is processed, the injected code executes in the context of the user running the CLI, yielding command execution. A public PoC reference exists (GitHub write-up); it is not verified here as a working weaponized exploit.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 26, 2026

Code injection in Sony nnabla through 1.39.0 can execute attacker-supplied Python when a user runs the 'nnabla_cli encode_param' command on a malicious text-format parameter file. The affected releases are no longer supported, no vendor fix is available, and the disclosure references publicly available exploit code; exploitation depends on the operator choosing to process the crafted file, which keeps the assessed risk low.

RemediationAI

No vendor-released patch was identified at time of analysis, and the affected nnabla releases are unsupported. Remove or disable the nnabla_cli encode_param entry point in environments where untrusted parameter files may be processed; if it must remain, accept only text-format parameter files from trusted sources with integrity checks and run the CLI in a low-privilege container or sandbox, accepting that sandboxing reduces but does not eliminate code-execution risk. Migrate to a maintained framework or a supported nnabla release if one becomes available, and consult the VulDB entry at https://vuldb.com/vuln/426171 for updates.

Technical ContextAI · show details

Sony nnabla is a deep-learning framework; the vulnerable path is python/src/nnabla/utils/cli/encode_decode_param.py, where load_param_in_txt parses text-format parameter data for the encode_param CLI handler. The parser passes file contents into an eval() call, so a crafted parameter file is interpreted as Python code; CWE-74 covers this injection class, where untrusted input reaches an interpreter. The CNA CVSS 4.0 vector is AV:N/UI:P/PR:N with low confidentiality, integrity and availability impact, while the independent assessment scores CVSS 3.1 AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H because the operator must run the CLI on the malicious file; no CPE strings were supplied.

DescriptionCVE.org

A vulnerability was identified in Sony Neural Network Libraries up to 1.39.0. This affects the function load_param_in_txt of the file python/src/nnabla/utils/cli/encode_decode_param.py of the component Encode Param Command Handler. Such manipulation leads to code injection. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploit is publicly available and might be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way. This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer.
