AnalysisAI
Unauthenticated OS command injection in NVIDIA Infrastructure Controller for Linux (versions 0 through 1.9) lets a network-reachable attacker execute arbitrary operating system commands on the host, enabling code execution, data tampering, denial of service, and information disclosure. Per the NVIDIA-assigned CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H, base 9.8), no credentials or user interaction are required, so an exposed controller interface is directly attackable; CISA's SSVC assessment rates technical impact as total, though exploitation has not been observed and the decision framework does not classify the issue as automatable. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Requires network reachability to the NVIDIA Infrastructure Controller service on an affected version (0 through 1.9) running on Linux, and the ability to reach the specific input handler that flows into an OS shell command. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | This is a genuine high-priority issue on the merits: CVSS 9.8 with vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H describes a network-reachable, low-complexity, unauthenticated OS command injection (CWE-78) with total technical impact, corroborated by SSVC Technical Impact: total. … 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 | No vendor-released patch is identified in the available data; consult the NVIDIA product-security advisory at https://github.com/NVIDIA/product-security/tree/main/2026/5879 for the fixed release and upgrade path covering the 0-through-1.9 range before deploying any version-specific claim. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, inventory every instance of NVIDIA Infrastructure Controller for Linux at versions 0 through 1.9 and determine which are reachable from untrusted networks; where exposure exists, immediately restrict access behind a firewall or VPN, disable external listeners, and segment the controller onto a management-only VLAN with strict allow-listing, since no vendor patch is currently available. …
