Lifecycle Timeline
2DescriptionCVE.org
NVIDIA Dynamo for Linux contains a vulnerability in the image loading component where an attacker may cause improper limitation of a pathname to a restricted directory. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to information disclosure.
AnalysisAI
Path traversal in NVIDIA Dynamo's image loading component on Linux enables unauthenticated remote attackers to read arbitrary files outside the intended restricted directory, resulting in high-severity information disclosure. All releases from version 0 through v1.0.0 are affected, per EUVD-2026-52804 and the NVIDIA product security advisory. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been identified at time of analysis, though the CVSS vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N) indicates low-complexity, authentication-free exploitation against any network-exposed instance.
Technical ContextAI
NVIDIA Dynamo is an AI inference acceleration framework designed for Linux environments. The vulnerability resides in its image loading component, which fails to enforce proper path canonicalization or sanitization on user-supplied file paths - a classic CWE-22 (Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory, also known as Path Traversal). By supplying traversal sequences such as '../' in the image path input, an attacker can escape the intended working or storage directory and direct the component to read files anywhere the Dynamo process has filesystem access. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:nvidia:dynamo:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* confirms all versions of the Dynamo application are affected, with EUVD scoping this to releases 0 through v1.0.0. The root cause is missing or bypassable input validation in the file path handling logic before the read operation is performed.
RemediationAI
Consult the NVIDIA product security advisory at https://github.com/NVIDIA/product-security/tree/main/2026/5842 for the official patch or upgrade - an exact fixed version number is not independently confirmed from the available source data, but the advisory covers the full affected range (0 through v1.0.0) and should be treated as authoritative. As a compensating control prior to patching, restrict network access to NVIDIA Dynamo services to trusted internal networks or authenticated reverse proxies, preventing untrusted actors from reaching the image loading endpoint; note this may require firewall rule changes and does not eliminate the underlying flaw. If the image loading feature accepts user-controlled path inputs, disabling or strictly allowlisting accepted path values is a targeted mitigation, though this may reduce functionality depending on use case. Additionally, ensure the Dynamo process runs under a least-privilege OS account with minimal filesystem read permissions, so that even if traversal is achieved, the accessible file scope is minimized.
