Frequently Asked Questions

1

Who can exploit this issue?

An unprivileged local user can trigger the condition by issuing a sequence of GPU driver commands. The local attack vector means an attacker needs access to a vulnerable Windows or Linux system rather than network-only access.

What is the potential impact if exploitation succeeds?

Successful exploitation may enable code execution, privilege escalation, denial of service, data tampering, and information disclosure. The CVSS vector rates confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact as high.
