Description

NVIDIA NVTabular for Linux contains a vulnerability in the Workflow component, where a user could cause a deserialization issue. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to code execution, denial of service, information disclosure, and data tampering.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5)AI

prevent

Directly remediates the deserialization flaw (CWE-502) in NVIDIA NVTabular Workflow component through timely patching as advised by NVIDIA security bulletins.

prevent

Validates untrusted network inputs to the Workflow component to reject malicious deserialization payloads requiring user interaction.

prevent

Provides memory protections such as ASLR and DEP to mitigate arbitrary code execution, DoS, disclosure, and tampering resulting from successful deserialization.

Security SummaryAI

CVE-2025-33214 affects NVIDIA NVTabular for Linux in its Workflow component, where a deserialization issue (CWE-502) can be triggered by a user. This vulnerability, published on 2025-12-09T18:15:49.610, carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 8.8 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H), indicating high severity due to network accessibility, low complexity, and significant impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

Attackers require no privileges (PR:N) but need to lure a user into some interaction (UI:R), such as processing malicious input over the network (AV:N). Successful exploitation could enable arbitrary code execution, denial of service, information disclosure, or data tampering on the targeted system.

Mitigation guidance is available in vendor and public advisories, including NVIDIA's security bulletin at https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5739, the NVD entry at https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-33214, and the CVE record at https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2025-33214.
