Privileged code execution via Bds out-of-bounds write
Published Apr 22, 2023 · Updated Feb 4, 2025
An out-of-bounds write in NVIDIA DGX-2 SBIOS before BMC 1.08.00 allows local users with high privileges to execute code or crash the system. The Bds component writes beyond the bounds of an indexable resource, corrupting adjacent firmware-managed data. High local privileges are required; successful exploitation also permits information disclosure and integrity compromise.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
