CVE-2024-0074

Data tampering and service interruption via out-of-bounds access

Published Mar 27, 2024 · Updated Aug 1, 2024

Out-of-bounds memory access in NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Linux allows local users to tamper with data or interrupt service. The driver accesses a memory location after the end of a buffer, while NVIDIA does not identify the affected function or triggering operation. The local low-privilege gate limits reachability; successful exploitation can corrupt data or interrupt service, but NVIDIA does not identify the failure mode.
