Remote Code Execution Vulnerability in LabVIEW

CVE-2024-23611

What is CVE-2024-23611?

An out of bounds write vulnerability in LabVIEW arises from a missing bounds check, which could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code remotely. To exploit this flaw, an attacker must convince a user to run a specially crafted virtual instrument (VI). This poses significant risks, especially for environments relying heavily on LabVIEW for system automation and data acquisition. The exploitability and impact of this vulnerability necessitate prompt attention from those using LabVIEW versions prior to 2024 Q1 to mitigate potential security threats.
