Critical CVSS 9
CVE-2025-23351
NVD analysis in progress
NVIDIA ConnectX and BlueField contain a vulnerability in the command interface where a local user with virtual function (VF) access may cause a write out of bounds by crafted input. A successful exploit of this vulnerability may lead to arbitrary code execution on the device.
What this means
- Exposure
- Exploitable from the adjacent network, with an ordinary user account and with no action from the victim.
- Impact
- An attacker can read sensitive data, modify or destroy data and take the service offline. The impact spreads beyond the vulnerable component into other parts of the system.
- Weakness
- An out-of-bounds write corrupts neighbouring memory and often enables code execution.
- Likelihood
- Its EPSS score stays low: nothing points to imminent exploitation, which is no reason to leave it unpatched.
