CVE-2025-23317Network attack vector

Unauthenticated code execution via HTTP heap overflow

Published Aug 6, 2025 · Updated Aug 6, 2025

Heap-based buffer overflow in NVIDIA Triton Inference Server before 25.07 allows remote attackers to execute code via crafted HTTP requests. The HTTP server mishandles a crafted request and overwrites heap memory, but NVIDIA has not identified the affected function or parsing operation. No authentication or user interaction is required, and successful exploitation can start a reverse shell, tamper with data, or interrupt the service.
