In the absence of a patch, using a Web Application Firewall (WAF) or Intrusion Detection System (IDS) can provide temporary mitigation. However, this is only a temporary solution and can&#8217;t replace the need for a vendor-provided security patch. It&#8217;s recommended to apply patches as soon as they become available.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Overview The CVE-2025-23307 vulnerability is a significant threat to all platforms running NVIDIA NeMo Curator.
