CVE-2026-24229: CWE-306 Missing Authentication for Critical Function in NVIDIA TensorRT-LLM
NVIDIA TensorRT-LLM for Linux contains a vulnerability in its disaggregated orchestrator component. This flaw allows an attacker to read, write, or delete internal cluster state by sending requests to the FastAPI server without authentication. Exploiting this vulnerability could lead to information disclosure, data tampering, and denial of service. The vulnerability is identified as CWE-306 (Missing Authentication for Critical Function). The CVSS v3.1 base score is 7.3, indicating a high severity level. No patch or official remediation has been confirmed yet.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-24229 is a high-severity vulnerability in NVIDIA TensorRT-LLM's disaggregated orchestrator component on Linux. The issue arises from missing authentication controls on critical functions exposed via the FastAPI server, enabling an unauthenticated attacker with local access to manipulate internal cluster state. The impact includes potential unauthorized information disclosure, data tampering, and denial of service conditions. The CVSS vector (AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:L) reflects local attack vector with low complexity, no privileges required, no user interaction, unchanged scope, high confidentiality impact, low integrity impact, and low availability impact. No vendor advisory or patch information is currently available.
Potential Impact
An attacker with local access to the affected system can exploit the missing authentication to read, modify, or delete internal cluster state data. This can result in unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information, tampering with data integrity, and disruption of service availability. The vulnerability affects confidentiality most severely, with moderate impacts on integrity and availability.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, restrict local access to the FastAPI server component and monitor for unauthorized access attempts. Follow NVIDIA's advisories for updates and apply patches promptly once available.
