NVIDIA Container Toolkit for all platforms contains a vulnerability in the update-ldcache hook, where an attacker could cause a link following by using a specially crafted container image. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to data tampering and denial of service.

The remote Fedora 41 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the FEDORA-2025-ab370b9ac9 advisory.

    ### Security fixes

    * Bumped the minimum github.com/go-viper/mapstructure/v2 version to 2.3.0 for       GHSA-fv92-fjc5-jj9h or GO-2025-3787
    * Bumped the minimum github.com/NVIDIA/nvidia-container-toolkit version to       1.17.8 for CVE-2025-23266 and CVE-2025-23267

    ### Bug fixes

    * Improved error handling when creating symbolic links inside the container       to initialize it
    * Preserved environment variables set by a KDE session and Konsole
    * Unbroke access to CA certificates in `sshd(8)` sessions (regression in 0.1.2)
    * Unbroke overriding the `HOME` variable (regression in 0.0.90)

    ### Dependencies

    * Bumped the minimum Go version to 1.22

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The remote Fedora 42 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the FEDORA-2025-e41c694c83 advisory.

The version of NVIDIA Container Toolkit installed on the remote host is prior to 1.17.8. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the July 2025 advisory:

  - NVIDIA Container Toolkit for all platforms contains a vulnerability in some hooks used to initialize the container,     where an attacker could execute arbitrary code with elevated permissions. A successful exploit of this vulnerability     might lead to escalation of privileges, data tampering, information disclosure, and denial of service.
