NVIDIA patches high severity flaws in Windows, Linux drivers
#1
Exclamation 
Quote:NVIDIA has released security updates to address security vulnerabilities found in GPU Display and CUDA drivers and Virtual GPU Manager software that could lead to code execution, denial of service, escalation of privileges, and information disclosure on both Windows and Linux machines.
 
Although all the flaws patched today require local user access and cannot be exploited remotely, with attackers having to first get a foothold on the exposed machines to launch attacks designed to abuse these bugs.

Once that is achieved, they could take exploit them by remotely planting malicious code or tools targeting one of these issues on devices running vulnerable NVIDIA drivers. [....]
Quote:The NVIDIA GPU Display Driver - June 2020 security bulletin also includes the full list of software products and versions affected by the bugs fixed by NVIDIA today.

NVIDIA encourages customers to update their GeForce, Quadro, NVS, and Tesla Windows GPU display drivers, as well as Virtual GPU Manager and guest driver software by applying the security updates available on the NVIDIA Driver Downloads page.
