Data tampering and disclosure via malformed configuration
Published Jul 3, 2023 · Updated Nov 25, 2024
Improper input validation in NVIDIA DGX A100 and A800 SBIOS before 1.21 allows local users to read or alter data or interrupt service. SBIOS accepts configuration information in an unexpected format and improperly validates an input parameter; NVIDIA has not identified the parameter or parser. Exploitation requires local high-privilege access and high attack complexity, and published details do not identify the affected configuration path.

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.
