Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
NVIDIA Triton Inference Server for Windows and Linux contains a vulnerability where an attacker could cause stack buffer overflow by specially crafted inputs. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to remote code execution, denial of service, information disclosure, and data tampering.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

NVIDIA Triton Inference Server contains a stack buffer overflow vulnerability in its input processing path that can be triggered by specially crafted inputs. The overflow allows an attacker to overwrite stack memory, potentially achieving remote code execution with the server's privileges. This affects both Windows and Linux deployments of the inference server.

MitigationApply the NVIDIA security patch for CVE-2025-23310 immediately to all affected Triton Inference Server deployments. Until patched, restrict network access to the inference server and validate input sources.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify Triton Inference Server installation
    Run command: `tritonserver --version` or check Docker image tag if running in container: `docker images | grep triton`
    Affected if Version is present and below 25.07 (e.g., 25.06, 25.05, older releases)
  2. Determine if Triton server process is active
    Run: `ps aux | grep tritonserver` on Linux or check Services on Windows for Triton Inference Server
    Affected if Server process is running and listening on network ports (typically 8000, 8001, 8002)
  3. Verify network accessibility
    Check listening ports: `netstat -tlnp | grep -E '8000|8001|8002'` or `ss -tlnp | grep -E '8000|8001|8002'` on Linux; on Windows use `netstat -an | findstr '8000'`
    Affected if Server ports are bound to 0.0.0.0 or an exposed network interface, allowing remote connections to inference endpoints
  4. Confirm input processing endpoints are reachable
    Test health endpoint: `curl -s http://localhost:8000/v2/health/ping` (adjust port if different) or use wget
    Affected if HTTP endpoints respond, confirming the input processing path is active and accessible
  5. Check for authentication configuration
    Inspect Triton config.pbtxt or startup flags for `grpc_api_auth` or `http_auth` settings; also check if behind a reverse proxy with auth
    Affected if No authentication is configured and server is network-accessible, meaning untrusted inputs can reach the vulnerable processing path

You are affected if Triton Inference Server version is below 25.07 AND the server is running with accessible network endpoints, allowing untrusted inputs to reach the input processing path.

Recommended fix High confidence

Triton Inference Server 25.07

  1. Identify the current Triton Inference Server version in use
  2. Stop the Triton Inference Server service
  3. Upgrade Triton Inference Server to version 25.07 or later using the appropriate package manager or installation method for your platform (Windows or Linux)
  4. Verify the installation by checking the version number
  5. Restart the Triton Inference Server service
  6. Test that inference workflows function correctly after the upgrade
