Memory Corruption Vulnerabilities in NI LabVIEW

Overview

There are two memory corruption vulnerabilities due to improper error handling that exist 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.  These vulnerabilities affect NI LabVIEW 2025 Q1 and prior versions.

 

These vulnerabilities are identified as CVE-2025-7848 and CVE-2025-7849.
