CVE-2024-4081

Code execution via crafted VI length corruption

Published Jul 23, 2024 · Updated Sep 30, 2025

Memory corruption in National Instruments LabVIEW 2024 Q1 and earlier allows attackers to disclose information or execute code via a crafted VI. LabVIEW processes attacker-controlled length data without an adequate bounds check when a VI is opened, but NI has not disclosed the affected parser, function, or buffer operation. Exploitation requires a user to open the malicious VI locally; successful corruption can expose process memory or execute code in the user's context.
