Code execution via unconstrained relative-path file write
Published Mar 11, 2025 · Updated Mar 11, 2025
Relative path traversal in NVIDIA NeMo Framework before 24.12 allows local users to execute code and tamper with data via a crafted file path. The framework accepts an attacker-influenced relative path for an arbitrary file write without confining the resolved destination, but NVIDIA has not identified the affected function or file operation. Exploitation requires local access and user interaction; the write can alter files accessible to the running process, leading to code execution or data tampering.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
