## Technical details

This vulnerability is a code injection flaw in the plugin management API of NVIDIA UFM Enterprise. An authenticated user with low privileges can craft a specially malformed API request to inject arbitrary code. The attack requires valid credentials but does not require special network position or user interaction. Successful exploitation leads to arbitrary code execution with the privileges of the UFM service, enabling privilege escalation and information disclosure. Patches should be available from NVIDIA for affected versions.
