DescriptionCVE.org

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

AnalysisAI

Local code execution in NVIDIA NVTabular allows an authenticated low-privileged user to abuse improper deserialization of untrusted data to run arbitrary code, tamper with data, and disclose sensitive information. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 7.8 (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N) reflecting a local attack vector with low complexity and low privileges; no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the issue is not on the CISA KEV list.

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Obtain low-priv local account on ML host
Delivery
Plant malicious pickled NVTabular artifact in shared path
Exploit
Victim job invokes NVTabular deserialization
Execution
Pickle gadget executes arbitrary Python
Persist
Code runs as training service user
Impact
Exfiltrate datasets, models, and credentials

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Attacker must have local access to the system (AV:L) and low-privileged authenticated access (PR:L) sufficient to place or substitute an NVTabular-loadable artifact - typically a workflow, preprocessing pipeline, or saved-state file - at a path that NVTabular subsequently deserializes; no user interaction is required (UI:N) once the victim process loads the file. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS vector (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N, C/I/A all High) places this firmly as a local-privileged-code-execution issue rather than a remote attack: an attacker must already have a foothold on the host and the ability to influence what file NVTabular loads. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario On a shared GPU workstation or ML platform, a low-privileged data scientist drops a malicious NVTabular workflow file into a directory consumed by a scheduled training job running under a more privileged service account. When the job calls the vulnerable deserialization path, the embedded pickle gadget executes, giving the attacker code execution as the training user with access to model weights, dataset secrets, and any mounted credentials. …
Remediation Upgrade NVTabular to the fixed release identified in NVIDIA security bulletin a_id/5851 (https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5851) - the exact fix version is not reproduced in the provided data, so consult that advisory for the precise build, and rebuild any Merlin or custom container images that pin a vulnerable NVTabular wheel. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
