CVE-2026-24212
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 · uneditedNVIDIA Isaac Launchable for Linux contains a vulnerability where sensitive information is transmitted in clear text. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to code execution, escalation of privileges, 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 confidenceNVIDIA Isaac Launchable for Linux transmits sensitive information in cleartext without encryption, allowing man-in-the-middle attackers to intercept credentials, session tokens, or other sensitive data during transmission. This cleartext communication vulnerability enables potential code execution, privilege escalation, information disclosure, and data tampering through intercepted session hijacking or injected malicious content.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify if NVIDIA Isaac Launchable is installedRun 'dpkg -l | grep isaac' or 'ls -la /opt/NVIDIA/Isaac' to locate the installation directoryAffected if The product is present on the system
-
Determine installed versionCheck version file in installation directory, such as 'cat /opt/NVIDIA/Isaac/launchable/version' or run 'isaac_launchable --version' if availableAffected if Version is 1.2 or lower (any version <= 1.2)
-
Inspect network configuration filesExamine configuration files in the installation directory for network settings, such as 'cat /opt/NVIDIA/Isaac/launchable/config/network.conf' or similar configuration filesAffected if Network settings show plain HTTP or unencrypted protocols are enabled
-
Check for TLS/SSL settings in communication modulesSearch for configuration entries containing 'tls', 'ssl', 'https', or 'encryption' settings in all .conf, .yaml, or .json config files within the Isaac Launchable directoryAffected if No TLS/SSL encryption is configured or encryption settings are disabled/missing
-
Capture network traffic during operationUse tools like 'tcpdump' or 'wireshark' to capture network packets while Isaac Launchable communicates with external endpoints, looking for cleartext transmission of credentials or sensitive dataAffected if Cleartext credentials, tokens, or configuration data are observed in network packets
User is affected if NVIDIA Isaac Launchable version <= 1.2 is installed and network communications are not configured to use TLS/SSL encryption, allowing sensitive data to be transmitted in cleartext.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataImplement TLS/SSL encryption for all network communications within Isaac Launchable, ensure secure configuration defaults, and verify no sensitive data is transmitted over unencrypted channels.
