Sensitive-memory leakage via undisclosed race condition
Published May 26, 2026 · Updated May 26, 2026
Information exposure in NVIDIA Linux GPU Driver R580 before 580.159.03 and R595 before 595.71.05 allows local users to leak sensitive memory. NVIDIA has disclosed only that a race condition exposes sensitive memory; no affected function, module, or conflicting operation is public. The path requires local high privileges and no user interaction; exploitation can expose or alter limited data or interrupt service by an undisclosed failure mode.

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.
- Affected versionversion=All driver versions prior to 580.159.03
- Affected versionversion=All driver versions prior to 595.71.05
