Technical details

The vulnerability is a use-after-free condition in the GPU display driver that can be triggered by an unprivileged user issuing a crafted sequence of driver commands. This allows an attacker with local access to execute code with elevated privileges, cause denial of service, or leak sensitive information. A patch from NVIDIA is available to address this issue.
