NVIDIA Nemo Framework enthält eine Schwachstelle, bei der ein Benutzer durch willkürliches Schreiben von Dateien ein relatives Pfad-Traversal-Problem verursachen könnte. Ein erfolgreicher Exploit dieser Schwachstelle kann zu Codeausführung a

The core of this vulnerability lies in the framework's handling of file paths. An attacker can craft malicious input that bypasses intended security checks, allowing them to specify a path outside the intended directory. This could enable them to overwrite critical configuration files, inject malicious code into the system, or exfiltrate sensitive data. The potential for code execution significantly elevates the risk, as it could grant an attacker complete control over the affected system. The impact is amplified if the NeMo Framework is deployed in a production environment handling sensitive data or integrated with other critical systems, potentially leading to widespread data breaches and system compromise.

Organizations utilizing the NVIDIA NeMo Framework for natural language processing tasks, particularly those involved in model training or deployment, are at risk. This includes research institutions, AI development companies, and any entity relying on NeMo for its NLP pipelines. Environments with less stringent security controls or those running older, unpatched versions of the framework are particularly vulnerable.

• python / framework: Inspect NeMo Framework code for file handling routines that construct paths from user-supplied input. Look for missing or inadequate validation.

import os
# Vulnerable code example
filepath = os.path.join(base_dir, user_input)
# Safe code example
filepath = os.path.join(base_dir, os.path.normpath(user_input))

• generic web: Monitor web server access logs for unusual file access patterns, particularly attempts to access files outside of the expected directory structure. • generic web: Check for unexpected files appearing in sensitive directories within the NeMo Framework installation.

The primary mitigation for CVE-2025-23360 is to immediately upgrade to NVIDIA NeMo Framework version 24.12 or later. If upgrading is not immediately feasible due to compatibility concerns or system downtime requirements, consider implementing stricter input validation on file paths within the framework. Implement robust access controls to limit the permissions of the NeMo Framework user account, preventing it from writing to sensitive system directories. Monitor file system activity for unexpected file modifications, particularly in critical directories. While a WAF cannot directly prevent this vulnerability, it can be configured to detect and block suspicious file path patterns in incoming requests.
