Local code execution
Published Feb 18, 2026 · Updated Feb 18, 2026
Code injection in NVIDIA NeMo Framework before 2.6.1 allows local users to execute code through attacker-controlled data. NVIDIA has not disclosed the affected component or the operation that processes the untrusted data as executable code. Low-privilege local access is required; exploitation can crash the process, expose data, or alter data in the executing user's security context.

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.
