CVE-2026-24246 Published on July 1, 2026
NVIDIA Megatron Bridge for Linux contains a vulnerability where an attacker could cause improper control of dynamically managed code resources. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to code execution, escalation of privileges, data tampering, and information disclosure.
Vulnerability Analysis
CVE-2026-24246 is exploitable with local system access, requires user interaction. This vulnerability is considered to have a low attack complexity. The potential impact of an exploit of this vulnerability is considered to be very high.
Weakness Type
What is a Reflection Injection Vulnerability?
The application uses external input with reflection to select which classes or code to use, but it does not sufficiently prevent the input from selecting improper classes or code. If the application uses external inputs to determine which class to instantiate or which method to invoke, then an attacker could supply values to select unexpected classes or methods. If this occurs, then the attacker could create control flow paths that were not intended by the developer. These paths could bypass authentication or access control checks, or otherwise cause the application to behave in an unexpected manner. This situation becomes a doomsday scenario if the attacker can upload files into a location that appears on the application's classpath (CWE-427) or add new entries to the application's classpath (CWE-426). Under either of these conditions, the attacker can use reflection to introduce new, malicious behavior into the application.
CVE-2026-24246 has been classified to as a Reflection Injection vulnerability or weakness.
