CVE-2026-24200: NVIDIA vGPU software use-after-free in virtual GPU manager

CVE-2026-24200 · Severity: high · CVSS 7 · Published 2026-05-26

NVIDIA vGPU software, which allows multiple virtual machines to share a single physical graphics processor, contains a security flaw in its management component. A local attacker with limited access could exploit this vulnerability to crash the system, steal sensitive data, or gain higher-level administrative privileges. This could lead to a total compromise of the host system and the virtual environments it supports.

Technologies: Nvidia vGPU software. Vendors: Nvidia.

Technical details

A use-after-free (UAF) vulnerability exists in the NVIDIA virtual GPU manager component of the vGPU software. The flaw involves improper management of stack memory, which can be triggered by a local attacker with low privileges. While the attack complexity is rated as high, a successful exploit allows for a range of impacts including denial of service, information disclosure, data tampering, and arbitrary code execution. The vulnerability is tracked as CWE-416 and affects the management layer that interfaces between the guest VMs and the physical hardware.
