Descriptions

NVIDIA Linux GPU Display Driver, all versions, contains a vulnerability in the UVM driver, in which a race condition may lead to a denial of service.

NVIDIA Linux GPU Display Driver, todas las versiones, contiene una vulnerabilidad en el controlador UVM, en el que una condiciĆ³n de carrera puede conllevar a una denegaciĆ³n de servicio

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.
