Frequently Asked Questions
1
Can this be exploited remotely or does it require local access?
The CVSS vector indicates local attack access is required. No user interaction is required once the attacker has the necessary access.
2
What level of access must an attacker already have?
The vulnerability requires high privileges and has high attack complexity. It is therefore most relevant where a privileged local user or process can interact with the NVIDIA Linux GPU display driver.
