It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-25523 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: NVIDIA CUDA Toolkit. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-25523/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-25523/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-25523","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-25523/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-25523","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2023-25523","GHSA-42mx-j73w-f45w","UBUNTU-CVE-2023-25523"],"analysis":{"component_type":"developer_tool","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"CUDA Toolkit","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can cause a partial denial of service in NVIDIA CUDA Toolkit by tricking a user into opening a malformed ELF file with nvdisasm.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"nvidia","cpe":[{"product":"cuda_toolkit","vendor":"nvidia"}],"cvss":{"score":3.3,"severity":"low","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-476","name":"NULL Pointer Dereference"}],"description":"NVIDIA CUDA toolkit for Linux and Windows contains a vulnerability in the nvdisasm binary file, where an attacker may cause a NULL pointer dereference by providing a user with a malformed ELF file.
