Ni · Ni-Pal · CVE-2026-8035
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
NI-PAL versions prior to 26.3.1
**Description**
Improper input validation in the NI-PAL kernel driver allows a local authenticated user to cause a denial of service. This occurs when a crash is triggered by a NULL pointer dereference, which happens when the software attempts to read or write to a memory address that is null, leading to a system failure.
**Recommendations**
Update NI-PAL to a version newer than 26.3.0.
