CVE-2026-65087

API key disclosure via command-line propagation

Published Aug 25, 2026 · Updated Aug 25, 2026

Credential exposure in NVIDIA NemoClaw 0.0.1 and earlier allows local users to read an API key from process and sandbox metadata. Onboarding and setup paths pass NVIDIA_API_KEY into sandbox environments and literal command arguments, exposing it through process listings, procfs, container inspection, and audit logs. Exploitation requires low-privileged local access and user interaction; disclosure compromises the credential and enables the vendor-reported data tampering.
