Preface: Artificial intelligence penetrates into different industries. Perhaps the expansion of some HPC supercomputers is not limited to regions. They can be run on a blockchain network to build a matrix.
Background: In today’s high-performance computing (HPC) landscape, network interconnect technology is essential in linking compute nodes to ensure efficient data transfer. Among the interconnect technologies, NVIDIA’s NVLink and InfiniBand stand offers diverse advantages for specific use cases.
UFM (Unified Fabric Manager) Server is a server on which UFM is installed and has complete visibility over the fabric to manage routing on all devices.
NVIDIA® UFM® Cyber-AI is packaged in a tar le. The tar le consists of several docker images and an installation script. The script will load the docker images and create a UFM Cyber-AI service. UFM Cyber-AI should be installed on UFM Cyber-AI appliance.
In addition to the REST API used for Cyber AI management, Cyber AI software provides several command-line tools (CLI) for managing the Cyber AI system.
Vulnerability details: NVIDIA UFM Enterprise, UFM Appliance, and UFM CyberAI contain a vulnerability where an attacker can cause an improper authentication issue by sending a malformed request through the Ethernet management interface. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to escalation of privileges, data tampering, denial of service, and information disclosure.
