high Nessus Plugin ID 234623

Synopsis

An application installed on the remote Windows host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of National Instruments (NI) LabVIEW installed on the remote Windows host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- There are two out of bounds write vulnerabilities due to improper bounds checking that exist in NI LabVIEW that may result in information disclosure or arbitrary code execution. Successful exploitation requires an attacker to get a user to open a specially crafted VI. These vulnerabilities affect NI LabVIEW 2025 Q1 and prior versions. (CVE-2025-2631, CVE-2025-2632)

- There is a DLL hijacking vulnerability due to an uncontrolled search path that exists in NI LabVIEW. This vulnerability may result in arbitrary code execution. Successful exploitation requires an attacker to insert a malicious DLL into the uncontrolled search path. This vulnerability affects NI LabVIEW 2025 Q1 and prior versions. (CVE-2025-2630)

- There is a DLL hijacking vulnerability due to an uncontrolled search path that exists in NI LabVIEW when loading NI Error Reporting. This vulnerability may result in arbitrary code execution. Successful exploitation requires an attacker to insert a malicious DLL into the uncontrolled search path. This vulnerability affects NI LabVIEW 2025 Q1 and prior versions. (CVE-2025-2629)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
