Amazon Linux 2023 : cuda (ALAS2023NVIDIA-2025-013)

low Nessus Plugin ID 314567

Synopsis

The remote Amazon Linux 2023 host is missing a security update.

Description

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023NVIDIA-2025-013 advisory.

NVIDIA CUDA toolkit for all platforms contains a vulnerability in the cuobjdump binary, where a user could cause an out-of-bounds read by passing a malformed ELF file to cuobjdump. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to a partial denial of service. (CVE-2024-53870)

NVIDIA CUDA toolkit for all platforms contains a vulnerability in the nvdisasm binary, where a user could cause an out-of-bounds read by passing a malformed ELF file to nvdisasm. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to a partial denial of service. (CVE-2024-53871)

NVIDIA CUDA toolkit for all platforms contains a vulnerability in the cuobjdump binary, where a user could cause an out-of-bounds read by passing a malformed ELF file to cuobjdump. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to a partial denial of service. (CVE-2024-53872)

NVIDIA CUDA toolkit for Linux and Windows contains a vulnerability in the cuobjdump binary, where a user could cause a crash by passing a malformed ELF file to cuobjdump. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to a partial denial of service. (CVE-2024-53878)

NVIDIA CUDA toolkit for Linux and Windows contains a vulnerability in the cuobjdump binary, where a user could cause a crash by passing a malformed ELF file to cuobjdump. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to a partial denial of service. (CVE-2024-53879)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Run 'dnf update cuda-toolkit --releasever latest' or or 'dnf update --advisory ALAS2023NVIDIA-2025-013 --releasever latest' to update your system.
