Code execution via absolute path traversal
Published Aug 18, 2026 · Updated Aug 20, 2026
Absolute path traversal in NVIDIA Triton Inference Server for Linux before 26.06 allows local users to execute code via crafted file paths. NVIDIA's public records identify CWE-36 but do not disclose the affected component, the file operation that trusts an absolute path, or the code path that turns traversal into execution. Published scoring limits confirmed reachability to low-privilege local access on Linux, so triage depends on whether untrusted users can submit or influence filesystem paths on the host.

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.
