NVIDIA Infrastructure Controller for Linux contains a vulnerability where an attacker may cause uncontrolled resource consumption. A successful exploit of this vulnerability may lead to denial of service.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The NVIDIA Infrastructure Controller for Linux contains a CWE-400 Uncontrolled Resource Consumption vulnerability. An attacker with local privileges may exploit this flaw to consume excessive system resources, potentially causing a denial of service. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 6.5 (medium severity) with vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H, indicating network attack vector, low attack complexity, requires privileges, no user interaction, unchanged scope, no confidentiality or integrity impact, but high impact on availability. No vendor advisory or patch information is available to confirm remediation status or affected versions.
Potential Impact
Successful exploitation results in denial of service by exhausting system resources on the affected NVIDIA Infrastructure Controller for Linux. There is no impact on confidentiality or integrity. The attack requires privileges and can be performed remotely over the network.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until a fix is available, limit access to the NVIDIA Infrastructure Controller to trusted users with appropriate privileges to reduce risk.
