TensorRT-LLM: Write-what-where Condition

CVE-2026-47473 is a high-severity write-what-where condition vulnerability in TensorRT-LLM from NVIDIA, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.4 out of 10. It can be exploited with local access to the system by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. Affected TensorRT-LLM versions: v1.3.0 rc16 and earlier. The record does not name a fixed version, so check the vendor advisory. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.16% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.

Official description

NVIDIA TensorRT-LLM contains a vulnerability where an attacker could cause a write-what-where condition. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to data tampering, denial of service, and information disclosure.

Source: the CVE record as published by its numbering authority, via NVD and CVE.org.

The underlying weakness: Write-what-where Condition

Any condition where the attacker has the ability to write an arbitrary value to an arbitrary location, often as the result of a buffer overflow.

How developers prevent this class of flaw

  • Use a language that provides appropriate memory abstractions.
  • Use OS-level preventative functionality integrated after the fact. Not a complete solution.
