Technical details
A vulnerability exists in the NVIDIA Jetson Linux initrd (initial RAM disk) component due to a trust boundary violation. Specifically, the 'nvluks' trusted application is not disabled as intended, which can be leveraged by a local attacker with low privileges or an attacker with physical access. Successful exploitation allows for unauthorized information disclosure from the secure environment. The issue affects various Jetson series including Xavier, Orin, and Thor. Patches are available in versions 35.6.4 and 36.5.
