CVE-2026-24169

Authenticated code execution via plugin API injection

Published Aug 25, 2026 · Updated Aug 25, 2026

Command injection in NVIDIA UFM Enterprise allows remote authenticated users to execute code through the plugin management API. The API incorporates attacker-controlled content from a specially crafted request into a command without neutralizing command elements; NVIDIA has not disclosed the affected function or parameter. Low-privilege credentials and adjacent-network access are required, and successful exploitation can elevate privileges and disclose information in addition to executing code.
