CVE-2024-0106

Local data tampering via improper privilege handling

Published Nov 1, 2024 · Updated Nov 1, 2024

Improper privilege handling in NVIDIA BlueField DPU host firmware allows local users to tamper with data, disclose information, or interrupt service. NVIDIA has not disclosed the affected firmware locus or the operation that proceeds after an insufficient-privilege condition. Exploitation requires low-privilege local access to the DPU and can alter data, expose limited information, or interrupt service without user interaction.
