NVIDIA Virtual GPU Manager Multiple Vulnerabilities (November 2022)

high Nessus Plugin ID 181414

Language:

Synopsis

A GPU virtualization application installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The NVIDIA Virtual GPU Manager software on the remote host is missing a security update. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities, including the following:

 - NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer handler, where an unprivileged regular user can cause truncation errors when casting a primitive to a primitive of smaller size causes data to be lost in the conversion, which may lead to denial of service or information disclosure. (CVE-2022-34670)

 - NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer, where an unprivileged regular user can cause the use of an out-of-range pointer offset, which may lead to data tampering, data loss, information disclosure, or denial of service. (CVE-2022-42264)

 - NVIDIA vGPU software contains a vulnerability in the Virtual GPU Manager (vGPU plugin), where an input index is not validated, which may lead to buffer overrun, which in turn may cause data tampering, information disclosure, or denial of service. (CVE-2022-42262) Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update NVIDIA vGPU Manager software to version 11.11, 13.6, 14.4 or later.
