Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection')

CVE-2025-7361

High
8.5/10

Summary

A code injection vulnerability due to an improper initialization check exists in NI LabVIEW that may result in arbitrary code execution. Successful exploitation requires an attacker to get a user to open a specially crafted VI using a CIN node. This vulnerability affects 32-bit NI LabVIEW 2025 Q1 and prior versions. LabVIEW 64-bit versions do not support CIN nodes and are not affected.

CWE-94 - Code Injection

Code injection is a type of vulnerability that allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code. This vulnerability fully compromises the machine and can cause a wide variety of security issues, such as unauthorized access to sensitive information, manipulation of data, denial of service attacks etc. Code injection is different from command injection in the fact that it is limited by the functionality of the injected language (e.g. PHP), as opposed to command injection, which leverages existing code to execute commands, usually within the context of a shell.
