CVE-2025-33180

Low-privilege escalation via NVUE command injection

Published Feb 24, 2026 · Updated Feb 24, 2026

Command injection in affected NVIDIA Cumulus Linux and NVOS releases allows remote authenticated users to gain elevated privileges via NVUE. The NVUE interface fails to neutralize attacker-controlled command elements; NVIDIA has not disclosed the affected endpoint or function. Exploitation requires a low-privileged account and adjacent-network reachability, and successful injection grants elevated control over the switch operating system.
