It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023NVIDIA-2026-283 advisory.

    NVIDIA Display Driver for Windows and Linux contains a vulnerability in the kernel driver, where a user     could cause an incorrect permission assignment for a critical resource. A successful exploit of this     vulnerability might lead to data tampering and denial of service. (CVE-2025-33221)

    NVIDIA Display Driver for Windows and Linux contains a vulnerability where an attacker could leak held     driver locks. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to denial of service. (CVE-2026-24182)

    NVIDIA Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability where an attacker could cause a use-after-free. A     successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to denial of service, escalation of privileges,     information disclosure, data tampering, and code execution. (CVE-2026-24187)

    NVIDIA Display Driver for Windows and Linux contains a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer, where a     user could cause improper access to GPU resources. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead     to denial of service, escalation of privileges, information disclosure, data tampering, and code     execution. (CVE-2026-24190)

    NVIDIA Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability where an attacker could cause an incorrect     conversion between numeric types, leading to a heap buffer overflow. A successful exploit of this     vulnerability might lead to denial of service, escalation of privileges, information disclosure, data     tampering, and code execution. (CVE-2026-24192)

    NVIDIA Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability in a kernel mode layer handler, where a user     could cause improper permission handling. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to denial     of service, escalation of privileges, information disclosure, data tampering, and code execution.
    (CVE-2026-24194)

    NVIDIA Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability in UVM, where a user could cause improper input     validation. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to denial of service. (CVE-2026-24195)

    NVIDIA Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability where a user could cause an out-of-bounds read. A     successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to denial of service and information disclosure.
    (CVE-2026-24196)

    NVIDIA Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability in the Multi-Instance GPU (MIG) partition     management, where an insecure default initialization of memory subsystem routing resources could lead to     data corruption or a hang during partition reconfiguration. A successful exploit of this vulnerability     might lead to denial of service. (CVE-2026-24197)

    NVIDIA GPU Display Driver for Linux  contains a vulnerability where an advanced attacker could use a race     condition to leak sensitive memory, which might cause limited exposure of sensitive information to an     unauthorized actor. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to denial of service, data     tampering, and information disclosure. (CVE-2026-24198)

    NVIDIA Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability in a kernel module, where a user could cause a     race condition by reordering compiler or processor memory instructions. A successful exploit of this     vulnerability might lead to denial of service. (CVE-2026-24199)
