Executive Summary

This vulnerability in the NVIDIA DCGM Exporter allows an attacker to submit multiple unauthenticated profiling requests to the /debug/pprof endpoints. This causes uncontrolled resource consumption, potentially leading to denial of service and information disclosure.

Detection Guidance

Check if the NVIDIA DCGM Exporter is running and accessible. Inspect network traffic for repeated requests to /debug/pprof endpoints. Use tools like curl to test the endpoint: curl http://<target>:9400/debug/pprof/. Monitor system resource usage for spikes during profiling requests.

Impact Analysis

An attacker could exploit this to overload the system, causing it to slow down or crash. This may disrupt services relying on the DCGM Exporter and expose sensitive information.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability could lead to unauthorized access or data exposure, violating GDPR and HIPAA requirements for data protection and confidentiality. Organizations may face compliance penalties if exploited.

Mitigation Strategies
  • Disable or restrict access to the /debug/pprof endpoints in the NVIDIA DCGM Exporter configuration.
  • Update the NVIDIA DCGM Exporter to a version beyond 4.8.2 if available.
  • Implement network-level controls to block unauthorized access to the vulnerable endpoints.
