Summary

CVE-2024-10495 is a high-severity Improper Validation of Specified Index, Position, or Offset in Input (CWE-1285) vulnerability in Ni Labview. Its CVSS base score is 8.4 (High).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploitation for Privilege Escalation (T1068); ranked at the 9th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

SA-11 Developer Testing and Evaluation good match

Developer testing and evaluation directly finds out-of-bounds read flaws through static analysis, fuzzing, and dynamic bounds checks.

SI-10 Information Input Validation good match

Requires explicit validation of supplied indices/offsets/positions before they are used to access buffers or other indexable resources.

SA-8 Security and Privacy Engineering Principles partial match

Secure engineering principles require bounds checking and memory-safe constructs that stop out-of-bounds reads from being introduced.

SC-39 Process Isolation partial match

Process isolation confines the effects of an out-of-bounds read to the compromised process.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.

PR.PS-06 mostly match
prevents

Secure SDLC practices directly require input validation, preventing this class of flaw at development time.

ID.RA-01 partial match
prevents

Vulnerability identification processes can discover missing index validation via scanning or reviews.

PR.PS-02 partial match
prevents

Patching and replacement can remediate instances of the weakness after discovery.

A.8.29 Security testing in development and acceptance mostly match
finds

Security testing can detect missing or incorrect index validation during development and acceptance.

A.8.15 Logging partial match
finds

Logging can record evidence of an out-of-bounds read but does not prevent the weakness itself.

A.8.25 Secure development life cycle partial match
prevents

Secure development lifecycle includes input validation requirements that can prevent improper index handling.

A.8.26 Application security requirements partial match
prevents

Application security requirements typically mandate bounds checking and validation of offsets/indices.

A.8.27 Secure system architecture and engineering principles partial match
prevents

Secure architecture principles include defensive input validation and bounds checking for indexable resources.

A.8.28 Secure coding partial match
prevents

Secure coding standards directly require validation of indices, positions, and offsets before use.
