Upgrade github.com/NVIDIA/nvidia-container-toolkit to 1.17.8
github.com/NVIDIA/k8s-device-plugin fixed: 0.17.3 
Upgrade github.com/NVIDIA/k8s-device-plugin to 0.17.3
github.com/NVIDIA/gpu-operator fixed: 25.3.2 
Upgrade github.com/NVIDIA/gpu-operator to 25.3.2
github.com/NVIDIA/mig-parted fixed: 0.12.2 
Upgrade github.com/NVIDIA/mig-parted to 0.12.2
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

inspect dependencies for github.com/NVIDIA/nvidia-container-toolkit

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your application is affected by CVE-2025-23267, inspect your project dependencies for Github.com/NVIDIA/nvidia container toolkit:

inspect dependencies for github.com/NVIDIA/nvidia-container-toolkit

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Github.com/NVIDIA/nvidia container toolkit in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 1.17.8), your application is affected.

Note: Verify declared build manifests and deployed runtime container environments.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-59: Improper Link Resolution Before File Access ('Link Following'), where the product attempts to access a file based on the filename, but it does not properly prevent that filename from identifying a link or shortcut that resolves to an unintended resource. In Github.com/NVIDIA/nvidia container toolkit, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

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.
