Descriptions
NVIDIA Windows GPU Display Driver, all versions, contains a vulnerability in the Inter Process Communication APIs, in which improper access control may lead to code execution, denial of service, or information disclosure.
NVIDIA Windows GPU Display Driver, todas las versiones, contiene una vulnerabilidad en las API Inter Process Communication, en el que el control de acceso inapropiado puede conllevar a una ejecución del código, denegación de servicio o divulgación de información
Thomas E. Carroll discovered that the NVIDIA Cuda graphics driver did not properly perform access control when performing IPC. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that the UVM driver in the NVIDIA graphics driver contained a race condition. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. Various other issues were also addressed.
