Local privilege escalation in the NI-PAL kernel driver allows a low-privileged authenticated Windows user to escalate to SYSTEM-level and execute arbitrary code, as confirmed by the NI vendor advisory. Affected deployments include NI-PAL versions 26.3.1 and all prior releases running exclusively on Microsoft Windows. No public exploit code exists and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, but the low access complexity (AC:L, AT:N in CVSS 4.0) means exploitation requires no special conditions beyond a local user session.
Local privilege escalation in National Instruments NI-PAL versions 26.3.0 and earlier on Windows and Linux allows authenticated low-privileged users to read arbitrary system memory through improper input validation, potentially leading to full privilege escalation. CVSS 4.0 base score is 8.4 (High) reflecting the local attack vector but high confidentiality and integrity impact. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV.
Local denial of service in NI's NI-PAL kernel driver (versions 26.3.0 and prior on Windows and Linux) allows an authenticated local user to crash the host system by sending malformed input that triggers a NULL pointer dereference in kernel space. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but the kernel-level impact means a successful trigger takes down the entire host, not just the driver process. The issue is vendor-disclosed by NI with an advisory published on ni.com.
Improper input validation in the National Instruments NI-PAL driver in versions 20.0.0 and prior may allow a privileged user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access. Rated high severity (CVSS 7.8), this vulnerability is low attack complexity.
